Optoelectronics: An Introduction to Materials and Devices provides a broad understanding in the rapidly expanding field of optoelectronics. An integrated approach is used to cover important topics in applied optics, waveguides, fibers, display devices, and semiconductor devices.
Using solved examples, the book provides simple treatments to discuss state-of-the-art devices, such as laser diodes, active matrix displays, and optical communication systems. The physics of light propagation in materials, the interaction of light and matter, along with device fabrication technologies, are also discussed.
