Synopsis

This classic text introduces engineering students to the first principles of major phenomena and devices of optoelectronics and optical communication technology. Yariv's "first principles" approach employs real-life examples and extensive problems. The text includes separate chapters on quantum well and semiconductor lasers, as well as phase conjugation and its applications. Optical fiber amplification, signal and noise considerations in optical fiber systems, laser arrays and distributed feedback lasers all are covered extensively in major sections within chapters.

About this title

Synopsis:

The latest edition of this standard textbook for seniors and graduate students in electrical engineering, physics, and applied physics integrates new treatment of phase conjugation, ultra short pulses, coherence of lasers and noise in lasers. Emphasis falls on optical communication laser propagation, and semiconductor lasers and their modulation. A
