Description for Silicon Photonics: Fundamentals and Devices
Hardcover. The creation of affordable high speed optical communications using standard semiconductor manufacturing technology is a principal aim of silicon photonics research. This would involve replacing copper connections with optical fibres or waveguides, and electrons with photons. Series: Wiley Series in Materials for Electronic & Optoelectronic Applications. Num Pages: 454 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TG; TJ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 175 x 253 x 25. Weight in Grams: 828.
The creation of affordable high speed optical communications using standard semiconductor manufacturing technology is a principal aim of silicon photonics research. This would involve replacing copper connections with optical fibres or waveguides, and electrons with photons. With applications such as telecommunications and information processing, light detection, spectroscopy, holography and robotics, silicon photonics has the potential to revolutionise electronic-only systems. Providing an overview of the physics, technology and device operation of photonic devices using exclusively silicon and related alloys, the book includes:
