Given silicon's versatile material properties, use of low-cost
silicon photonics continues to move beyond light-speed data
transmission through fiber-optic cables and computer chips. Its
application has also evolved from the device to the
integrated-system level. A timely overview of this impressive
growth, Silicon Photonics for Telecommunications and Biomedicine
summarizes state-of-the-art developments in a wide range of areas,
including optical communications, wireless technologies, and
biomedical applications of silicon photonics. With contributions
from world experts, this reference guides readers through
fundamental principles and focuses on crucial advances in making
commercial use of silicon photonics a viable reality in the telecom
and biomedical industries. Taking into account existing and
anticipated industrial directions, the book balances coverage of
theory and practical experimental research to explore solutions for
obstacles to the viable commercialization of silicon photonics. The
book's special features include: A section on silicon plasmonic
waveguides Detailed coverage of novel III-V applications A chapter
on 3D integration Discussion of applications for energy
harvesting/photovoltaics This book reviews the most important
technological trends and challenges. It presents topics involving
major silicon photonics applications in telecommunications,
high-power photonics, and biomedicine. It includes discussion of
silicon plasmonic waveguides, piezoelectric tuning of silicon's
optical properties, and applications of two-photon absorption.
Expert authors with industry research experience examine the
challenge of hybridizing III-V compound semiconductors on silicon
to achieve monolithic light sources. They also address economic
compatibility and heat dissipation issues in CMOS chips, challenges
in designing electronic photonics in
