商品描述

At the heart of much current technology, including fiber-optic communications, optoelectronic devices outperform those based on conventional semiconductors and are likely to be essential in future computers. This book provides a basic understanding of the physical phenomena involved and is ideal for graduate students and engineers interested in designing new materials, devices and applications in optoelectronics. The book gives simple quantum mechanical explanations of important optical processes; it describes band-to-band, intersubband and excitonic absorption and recombination in bulk, quantum wells, wires, dots, superlattices and strained layers including electro-optic effects. It also covers the necessary background material in the classical theory of absorption, quantization of radiation, and band picture based on k-p perturbation. Prerequisites for the book are a knowledge of quantum mechanics and solid state theory. Each chapter concludes with a set of problems, some of which guide the reader to processes not covered in the text. Because it employs a simple one-electron theory throughout, the book is also accessible to advanced undergraduates in physics and engineering.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

許多現代科技的核心,包括光纖通訊,在光電子設備方面表現優於基於傳統半導體的設備,並且在未來的電腦中可能是必不可少的。本書提供了對所涉及的物理現象的基本理解,非常適合對設計光電子新材料、設備和應用感興趣的研究生和工程師。本書以簡單的量子力學解釋了重要的光學過程;描述了體材料、量子井、線、點、超晶格和應變層中的帶對帶、帶對井和激子吸收和複合,包括電光效應。它還涵蓋了吸收的經典理論、輻射的量子化以及基於k-p微擾的帶圖像的必要背景材料。本書的先決條件是對量子力學和固體理論有一定的了解。每章結束時都附有一組問題,其中一些引導讀者進一步了解文本中未涉及的過程。由於整本書都使用了簡單的單電子理論,因此對物理和工程的高年級本科生也很容易理解。
