Physics of Optoelectronics

Physics of Optoelectronics integrates into one comprehensive treatment introductions to semiconductor lasers and optics, linear algebra and quantum mechanics for optoelectronics, and quantum optics. It builds all the background you need to understand current research and publications of laser engineering-physics, from the basics of lasers and LEDs through the rate equations to the quantum mechanical expressions for gain and optical fields. Topics include an introduction to semiconductor lasers, a review of laser dynamics, classical electromagnetics and lasers, vector and Hilbert spaces and other mathematical foundations, quantum fields and other fundamentals of light, matter-light interaction, and semiconductor emitters and detectors.

Riassunto

Focuses on the properties of optical fields and their interaction with matter. This work offers an introduction to lasers, LEDs, and the rate equations, and then describes the emission and detection processes. It summarizes and reviews the mathematical background of the quantum theory embodied in the Hilbert space.
