Overview

The proceeding of the 50th Scottish Universities Summer School in Physics, this volume combines new physics and current device developments in low dimensional semiconductors. The aim of the text is to allow those who already have some familiarity with semiconductor physics and devices to broaden and expand their knowledge into expanding topics in low dimensional semiconductors. It provides a pedagogical coverage of selected areas of new and pertinent physics of low dimensional structures with a perspective of some of the latest optoelectronic devices under development. The coverage includes material and band structure issues and the physics of ultrafast, nonlinear, coherent, intersubband and intracavity phenomena. The devices emphasized are quantum cells, visible, quantum cascade and mode-locked lasers; microcavity LEDs and VCSELs; detectors and logic elements. An underlying theme is high speed phenomena and devices for increased bandwidths.
