Lecture Notes in Nonlinear Optics: A student's perspective

Mark G. Kuzyk received the B.A. (1979), M.S. (1981), and Ph.D. (1985) degrees in physics from the University of Pennsylvania. He was a Member of Technical Staff at AT&T Bell Laboratories until 1990, then became a faculty member at Washington State University, Pullman, where he was also the Boeing Distinguished Professor of Physics and Materials Science and is now Regents Professor. He is a Fellow of the Optical Society of America, the American Physical Society, and SPIE; was an Associate Chair of Physics and the Chair of the Materials Science Program; and presented the 2005 WSU Distinguished Faculty Address. He served as topical editor for JOSA B and is one of the founders of the ICONO conferences on organic nonlinear optics. In his spare time, he plays ice hockey with The Geezers in Moscow, Idaho.
