The book gives an in-depth description of key devices of current and next generation fibre optic communication networks. Devices treated include semiconductor lasers, optical amplifiers, modulators, wavelength filters and other passives, detectors, all-optical switches, but relevant properties of optical fibres and network aspects are included as well. The presentations include the physical principles underlying the various devices, technologies used for their realization, typical performance characteristics and limitations, but development trends towards more advanced components are also illustrated. This new edition of a successful book was expanded and updated extensively. The new edition covers among others lasers for optical communication, optical switches, hybrid integration, monolithic integration and silicon photonics. The main focus is on Indium phosphide-based structures but silicon photonics is included as well. The book covers relevant principles, state-of-the-art implementations, status of current research as well as expected future components.

Dr. Herbert Venghaus has more than 20 years of experience in fibre optic communication with particular emphasis on optoelectronic development. He published about 100 contributions in scientific journals, edited two books with Springer and is author of various book chapters. He is also a program committee member (including program chair) of various international conferences and reviewer of projects funded by the European Commission. Norbert Grote of Fraunhofer Heinrich-Hertz-Institute HHI, Berlin has expertise in Telecommunications Engineering, Optical Engineering and contributed to several books and journals.
