Essential Semiconductor Laser Device Physics (Second Edition) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book describes the key aspects of semiconductor laser device physics and principles of laser operation. It is an accessible, convenient reference and essential knowledge that may be easily understood before exploring more sophisticated device concepts. The contents serve as an essential foundation for scientists and engineers about how semiconductor lasers work and the fundamentals determining their behavior without requiring highly specialized and detailed study.

New material in the second edition includes expanded and improved descriptions of basic concepts and practical applications. A chapter on quantum effects in small semiconductor lasers has been included, and appendices provide helpful supplemental material.

Key Features:

• A concise description of semiconductor laser device physics.
• Provides an overview of the principles of laser operations.
• Presents material in an accessible, simplified, and succinct manner.
• Revised, expanded, and improved to include quantum effects in small semiconductor lasers.

Autorenporträt

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.
