Introduction to Quantum Electronics and Nonlinear Optics

Sergey M. Smolsky graduated from the Radio Engineering Faculty of Moscow Power Engineering Institute in 1970. He is Dr. Sci. (Eng), professor of the Radio Signal Generation and Processing Dept. of the Institute of Radio Engineering and Electronics in the National Research University “MPEl”. His scientific interests are autodyne and radar theory, telecommunications, nonlinear oscillation theory, chaotic systems, radio physics and signal processing, radiowaves propagation.Vitaly V. Shtykov received his Ph.D. (Techn.) in 1970. Now he works as a full-time professor at the Moscow Power Engineering Institute (MPEI). He has more than 200 publications and 21 patents.
