Diode Semiconductor can someone tell me about semiconductor diode switching times?or a site where i can find out about it?
a diode is consist of the p typer material and n type material. when the anode is connected to the positive terminal of input voltage and the cathode to the negative terminal, the diode will only conduct during the positive cycle because it is forward biased meaning it acts as short circuit. on the otherhand during the negative cycle , the diode will not conduct because it is reverse biased it will act as open circuit. For germanium diode to conduct, the input voltage must be greater than 0.3 V and for a silicon diode, the input voltage must be greater than 0.7V.03 and 0.7 V are said to be the barrier potentials of the diodes
Laser Diode Microsystems provides the reader with the basic knowledge and understanding required for using semiconductor laser diodes in optical microsystems and microoptical electromechanic systems. This tutorial addresses the fundamentals of semiconductor laser operation and design, coupled with an overview of the types of laser diodes suitable for use in Microsystems, along with their distinguishing characteristics.

This book covers the device physics of semiconductor lasers in five chapters written by recognized experts in this field. The volume begins by introducing the basic mechanisms of optical gain in semiconductors and the role of quantum confinement in modern quantum well diode lasers. Subsequent chapters treat the effects of built-in strain, one of the important recent advances in the technology of these lasers, and the physical mechanisms underlying the dynamics and high speed modulation of these devices. The book concludes with chapters addressing the control of photon states in squeezed-light and microcavity structures, and electron states in low dimensional quantum wire and quantum dot lasers. The book offers useful information for both readers unfamiliar with semiconductor lasers, through the introductory parts of each chapter, as well as a state-of-the-art discussion of some of the most advanced semiconductor laser structures, intended for readers engaged in research in this field. This book may also serve as an introduction for the companion volume, Semiconductor Lasers II: Materials and Structures, which presents further details on the different material systems and laser structures used for achieving specific diode laser performance features.* Introduces the reader to the basics of semiconductor lasers* Covers the fundamentals of lasing in semiconductors, including quantum confined and microcavity structures* Beneficial to readers interested in the more general aspects of semiconductor physics and optoelectronic devices, such as quantum confined heterostructures and integrated optics* Each chapter contains a thorough introduction to the topic geared toward the non-expert, followed by an in-depth discussion of current technology and future trends* Useful for professionals engaged in research and development* Contains numerous schematic and data-containing illustrations
