The creation of affordable high speed optical communications usingstandard semiconductor manufacturing technology is a principal aimof silicon photonics research. This would involve replacing copperconnections with optical fibres or waveguides, and electrons withphotons. With applications such as telecommunications andinformation processing, light detection, spectroscopy, holographyand robotics, silicon photonics has the potential to revolutioniseelectronic-only systems. Providing an overview of thephysics, technology and device operation of photonic devices usingexclusively silicon and related alloys, the book includes:
* Basic Properties of Silicon
* Quantum Wells, Wires, Dots and Superlattices
* Absorption Processes in Semiconductors
* Light Emitters in Silicon
* Photodetectors , Photodiodes and Phototransistors
* Raman Lasers including Raman Scattering
* Guided Lightwaves
* Planar Waveguide Devices
* Fabrication Techniques and Material Systems
Silicon Photonics: Fundamentals and Devices outlines thebasic principles of operation of devices, the structures of thedevices, and offers an insight into state-of-the-art and futuredevelopments.
