Semiconductor lasers are how manufactured in vast quantities for use
in CD players, laser printers, and optical communication systems.
They represent the most efficient way known of turning electricity
into light and, no doubt, have immense potential for future
applications. This book covers the latest research on the various
types of semiconductor lasers and serves as an overview for new
entrants into the field. Semiconductor Lasers 1: Fundamentals
discusses the device physics of semiconductor lasers, written by
recognized experts in the field.
