| Abstract
|
:
|
This book provides an overview of the underlying physics and technology of modern waveguide optoelectronics. By presenting these two aspects together in a coherent manner, readers will gain an appreciation of the fundamental physical limits to device performance as well as a critical understanding of the state of the art. <br/> Starting from the fundamental optical properties of matter, the book moves on to describe methods of device design, with an emphasis on low dimensional systems. The potential of III-IV semiconductors is highlighted because of their ability to incorporate lasers, waveguides, modulaters and detectors. However, other technologies -- principally lithium niobate and fibre devices -- are studied and contrasted. The role of nonlinear optics and femtosecond pulses within the framework of waveguide optics is evaluated. Optical fibre devices show considerable promise in a range of system applications and such devices are discussed and compared with planer devices. Finally, progress towards photonic and optoelectronic integrated circuits is addressed. <br/>
