The invention of the semiconductor laser along with silica glass fiber has enabled an incredible revolution in global communication infrastructure of direct benefit to all. Development of devices and system concepts that exploit the same fundamental light-matter interaction continues. Researchers and technologists are pursuing a broad range of emerging applications, everything from automobile collision avoidance to secure quantum key distribution. This book sets out to summarize key aspects of semiconductor laser device physics and principles of laser operation.

Tony Levi joined the USC faculty in mid-1993 after working for 10 years at AT&T Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, New Jersey. He invented hot-electron spectroscopy, discovered ballistic electron transport in heterostructure bipolar transistors, demonstrated room temperature operation of unipolar transistors with ballistic electron transport, created the first microdisk laser, and carried out work in optimal design of small electronic and photonic systems. His current research interests include device physics at the classical-quantum boundary, system engineering and integration, high-performance electronics, and optimization in system design. To date, he has published numerous scientific papers, several book chapters, is the author of the books Applied Quantum Mechanics (currently in its third edition), Essential Classical Mechanics for Device Physics, Essential Semiconductor Laser Device Physics, Essential Electron Transport for Device Physics, co-editor of the book Optimal Device Design, and holds 17 U.S. patents.
