Description for Long-wavelength Infrared Semiconductor Lasers
Hardcover. Infrared lasers have tremendous commerical applications for three main reasons. For fiber optics, the laser's long wavelenght make it capbale of traveling disatances without the need for frequent amplification. The transatlantic cables use these lasers as their source. Editor(s): Choi, Hong K. Series: Wiley Series in Lasers & Applications. Num Pages: 396 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PH; TTBL. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 163 x 25. Weight in Grams: 718.
Long-wavelength Infrared Semiconductor Lasers provides a comprehensive review of the current status of semiconductor coherent sources emitting in the mid-to far-infrared spectrum and their applications. It includes three topics not covered in any previous book: far-infrared emission from photo-mixers as well as from hot-hole lasers, and InP-based lasers emitting beyond two micrometers. Semiconductor lasers emitting at more than two micrometers have many applications such as in trace gas analysis, environmental monitoring, and industrial process control. Because of very rapid progress in recent years, until this book no comprehensive information beyond scattered journal articles is available at present.
