Fundamentals of Semiconductor Lasers Summary

Fundamentals of Semiconductor Lasers by Takahiro Numai

The detailed and comprehensive presentation is unique in that it encourages the reader to consider different semiconductor lasers from different angles. Emphasis is placed on recognizing common concepts such operating principles and structure, and solving problems based on individual situations. The treatment is enhanced by an historical account of advances in semiconductor lasers over the years, discussing both those ideas that have persisted over the years and those that have faded out.

Fundamentals of Semiconductor Lasers Reviews

Fundamentals of Semiconductor Lasers is a clear and instructive book for advanced undergraduate or graduate students who will become the next generation of laser specialists, and it is a good update for professional physicists, engineers, and researchers in quantum electronics and laser processing. The chapters are largely independent of one another, and a reader who is interested in only one topic may be satisfied by reading all or parts of the relevant chapter without reading the rest of the book. Well written, with many useful figures, formulas, and examples of calculations, Numai's book is a good guide in the field. Industrial Physicist
