Optical communications technology is growing increasingly in
importance, with a rapid pace of development. Innovative optical
devices have emerged from the integration of semiconductor laser
diodes, amplifiers and filters with optical waveguide technology.
This well-researched volume traces the evolution of semiconductor
laser amplifiers (SLAs) from these technologies. Focusing on the
principle applications of SLAs, the author illustrates the growing
importance of these functional components in the future of optical
communications systems. This book will provide engineering and
science students with a basic understanding of laser diode and
optical amplification through the analysis of the performance
characteristics of these devices both in theory and application.
Practising device engineers wishing to consolidate their knowledge
in lightwave technology will also find this book an invaluable
reference.
