Design, Analysis and Simulation of Optoelectronic Integrated Circuits (Oeics) and Subsystems

Over the past several decades, the field of optoelectronics has grown from a few laboratory experiments into an entire industry; in particular, because of the superior transmission characteristics of optical fiber, optical communications has become a field of its own. While its most easily recognized application is long-distance fiber-optic telecommunications, the concept of optical communications has been applied on smaller scales as well, including computer-to-computer optical networks, board-to-board optical buses or backplanes, and even chip-to-chip or gate-to-gate optical interconnections. Regardless of the application, however, every optoelectronic communication system consists of three components: the transmitter, the transmission medium and the receiver.
