Silicon photonics is currently a very active and progressive area
of research, as silicon optical circuits have emerged as the
replacement technology for copper-based circuits in communication
and broadband networks. The demand for ever improving
communications and computing performance continues, and this in
turn means that photonic circuits are finding ever increasing
application areas. This text provides an important and timely
overview of the 'hot topics' in the field, covering the various
aspects of the technology that form the research area of silicon
photonics.
With contributions from some of the world's leading researchers
in silicon photonics, this book collates the latest advances in the
technology. "Silicon Photonics: the State of the Art" opens with a
highly informative foreword, and continues to feature: the
integrated photonic circuit;silicon photonic waveguides; photonic
bandgap waveguides;mechanisms for optical modulation in
silicon;silicon based light sources;optical detection technologies
for silicon photonics;passive silicon photonic devices;photonic and
electronic integration approaches;applications in communications
and sensors.
"Silicon Photonics: the State of the Art" covers the essential
elements of the entire field that is silicon photonics and is
therefore an invaluable text for photonics engineers and
professionals working in the fields of optical networks, optical
communications, and semiconductor electronics. It is also an
informative reference for graduate students studying for PhD in
fibre optics, integrated optics, optical networking,
microelectronics, or telecommunications.
