Optoelectronics: An Introduction to Materials and Devices (Electrical and Computer Engineering)

This text provides a broad understanding of the rapidly growing field of optoelectronics. An integrated approach is used, covering important topics in applied optics, physics of optical response, semiconductor optoelectronic devices (lasers, LED's detectors) ; terroelectric devices (modulators) ; liquid crystal devices for displays; optical communication systems; and device fabrication steps.
