Chi H. Lee (EDT) Picosecond Optoelectronic Devices

Annotation

Picosecond Optoelectronic Devices reviews the major developments in the field of picosecond optoelectronics. This book discusses the picosecond pulse generation with semiconductor diode lasers; gigabit optical pulse generation in integrated lasers and applications; and picosecond photoconductors. The picosecond optoelectronic devices based on optically injected electron-hole plasma; pulse forming with optoelectronic switches; and high-power picosecond switching in bulk semiconductors are also elaborated. This text likewise discusses the sub-picosecond electrical sampling and applications; InP optoelectronic switches; and picosecond chronography. Other topics include the picosecond optical control of transferred-electron devices; optoelectronic switch for pulsed power; and responses of TEDs to picosecond optical pulses. This publication is a good source for electrical engineers and researchers conducting work on picosecond optoelectronics.
