Andonovic, I; Uttamchandani, D

Theoretical and applications aspects of optoelectronics technology are examined in an introduction for engineering students and practicing engineers. Chapters are devoted to the fundamental principles of optics and optoelectronics, optical coherence and polarization, semiconductor light sources, optical fibers, nonlinear effects in optical fibers, optical-fiber cables and connectors, and fiber-optic components. Consideration is given to integrated optics, fiber-optic telecommunication systems, fiber sensors and sensor networks, optical remote sensing, optical information processing, guided-wave signal processing, and optical-disk storage systems.
