This book focuses on a novel phenomenon named photon breeding. It
is applied to realizing light-emitting diodes and lasers made of
indirect-transition-type silicon bulk crystals in which the
light-emission principle is based on dressed photons. After
presenting physical pictures of dressed photons and dressed-photon
phonons, the principle of light emission by using dressed-photon
phonons is reviewed. A novel phenomenon named photon breeding is
also reviewed. Next, the fabrication and operation of light
emitting diodes and lasers are described The role of coherent
phonons in these devices is discussed. Finally, light-emitting
diodes using other relevant crystals are described and other
relevant devices are also reviewed.
