Optical Semiconductor Devices |
| Mitsuo Fukuda (NTT Opto-Electronics Laboratories, Kanagawa, Japan) |
| A practical guide to industrial applications of optical semiconductor devices.
This book is devoted to optical semiconductor devices and their numerous applications in telecommunications, optoelectronics, and consumer electronics--areas where signal processing or the transmission of signals across fiber optic cables is paramount. It introduces a new generation of devices that includes optical modulators, quantum well (QW) lasers, and photodiodes and explores new applications of more established devices such as semiconductor lasers, light-emitting diodes, and photodiodes. Mitsuo Fukuda examines the material properties, operation principles, fabrication, packaging, reliability, and applications of each device and offers a unique industrial perspective, discussing everything engineers and scientists need to know at different phases of research, development, and production. This guide to the state-of-the-art of optical semiconductor devices:
