Coherent Semiconductor Optics: From Basic Concepts to Nanostructure Applications

by Torsten Meier, Peter Thomas, Stephan W. Koch

Book Overview

This is the most instructive textbook on the theory and optical effects of semiconductors. It introduces the basic theoretical concepts required for the analysis of the optical response of semiconductor systems in the coherent regime. Only basic knowledge of quantum mechanics is required for readers to benefit from the results presented in this book. The entire presentation is based on a one-dimensional tight-binding model. Starting with discrete-level...
