Description for Nonclassical Light from Semiconductor Lasers and LEDs
Hardback. Supplies readers with the basic knowledge and guidance for the application of new lasers and light-emitting devices. This title discusses the generation of sub-shot-noise light in macroscopic pn junction light emitting devices. Series: Springer Series in Photonics (Closed). Num Pages: 258 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHJ; TJFD5; TTBL. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 15. Weight in Grams: 542.
The quantum statistical properties of light generated in a semiconductor laser and a light-emitting diode (LED) have been a ?eld of intense research for more than a decade. This research monograph discusses recent research activities in nonclassical light generation based on semiconductor devices, performed mostly at Stanford University. When a semiconductor material is used as the active medium to generate photons, as in semiconductor lasers and LEDs, the ?ow of carriers (electrons andholes)isconvertedintoa?owofphotons. Providedthattheconversionis fast and e?cient, the statistical properties of the carriers (“pump noise”) can be transferred to the photons; if pump noise can be suppressed to below the ... Read more
