Opis

The editors have drawn together an exceptional group of internationally known Japanese authorities to prepare the most comprehensive and detailed source of information available on this exciting area of optoelectronics. The book covers the entire area of optoelectronics, going from the theoretical background to advanced devices, materials processing details and specific applications from the standpoints of device physics and engineering.

Recenzje

The extent of the book is certainly impressive: no other current text takes us through such a wealth of material...chapters 5 and 6 on fundamental aspects of laser diodes are particularly impressive, and include some detail not available elsewhere in book form...This book has been released at a watershed in the subject, and its place on library shelves can be justified in these terms. - Physics World.
