A first on ultrafast phenomena in carbon nanostructures like
graphene, the most promising candidate for revolutionizing
information technology and communication The book introduces the
reader into the ultrafast nanoworld of graphene and carbon
nanotubes, including their microscopic tracks and unique optical
finger prints. The author reviews the recent progress in this field
by combining theoretical and experimental achievements. He offers a
clear theoretical foundation by presenting transparently derived
equations. Recent experimental breakthroughs are reviewed. By
combining both theory and experiment as well as main results and
detailed theoretical derivations, the book turns into an inevitable
source for a wider audience from graduate students to researchers
in physics, materials science, and electrical engineering who work
on optoelectronic devices, renewable energies, or in the
semiconductor industry.
This tour d'horizon book reviews airport regulation and competition
in different regions of the world and contrasts different policy
perspectives. Organized in four parts, the first three examine, in
turn, Australasia, North America, and Europe, while the last
section looks at the institutional reforms that have taken place in
these regions. The book covers the regulation of airports, and
competition in different regions, as well as privatization policy,
the interaction between airports and airlines, and regional
economic impacts. It also examines the linkages between governance
structures and forms of regulation. The book's global sweep
embraces all the large aviation markets, bringing together the
ideas and challenges of academic economists, airlines, airport
managers, consultants and government regulators. As well as looking
at different methods, degrees and paradigms of regulation it also
spells out the stress-points, in a way that makes essential reading
for airport operators, airline operations staff, as well as
academic economists concerned with transport studies. It also
offers interesting reading and important lessons for those
concerned with regulation of the utility industries such as,
telecommunications, water and power generation and distribution -
where infrastructure can be subject to natural monopoly
characteristics and where firms competing in downstream markets are
dependent on the investment and operational strategies of the
upstream infrastructure operator.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art
in the development of semiconductor nanostructures and nanophotonic
devices. It covers epitaxial growth processes for GaAs- and
GaN-based quantum dots and quantum wells, describes the fundamental
optical, electronic, and vibronic properties of nanomaterials, and
addresses the design and realization of various nanophotonic
devices. These include energy-efficient and high-speed vertical
cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) and ultra-small
metal-cavity nano-lasers for applications in multi-terabus systems;
silicon photonic I/O engines based on the hybrid integration of
VCSELs for highly efficient chip-to-chip communication;
electrically driven quantum key systems based on q-bit and
entangled photon emitters and their implementation in real
information networks; and AlGaN-based deep UV laser diodes for
applications in medical diagnostics, gas sensing, spectroscopy, and
3D printing. The experimental results are accompanied by reviews of
theoretical models that describe nanophotonic devices and their
base materials. The book details how optical transitions in the
active materials, such as semiconductor quantum dots and quantum
wells, can be described using a quantum approach to the dynamics of
solid-state electrons under quantum confinement and their
interaction with phonons, as well as their external pumping by
electrical currents. With its broad and detailed scope, this book
is indeed a cutting-edge resource for researchers, engineers and
graduate-level students in the area of semiconductor materials,
optoelectronic devices and photonic systems.
