Proceedings of SPIE present the original research papers presented at SPIE conferences and other high-quality conferences in the broad-ranging fields of optics and photonics. These books provide prompt access to the latest innovations in research and technology in their respective fields. Proceedings of SPIE are among the most cited references in patent literature.
The missing link in a dynamically growing field--a state-of-the-artreference on optoelectronic packaging The rapidly expanding field of packaging for optoelectronic deviceschallenges electrical engineers with a host of complex and dauntingproblems. The increasing intricacy of assemblage compounds thethorny interconnection issues associated with electronicpackaging-how to assemble an array with many elements efficientlywhile maintaining thermal tolerance and simultaneously overcomingthe ensuing modulation problems that generate electrical noise.Adding to these problems has been the absence, until now, of asingle authoritative reference on the subject. Optoelectronic Packaging is the first and only comprehensivesourcebook on optoelectronic assembly techniques. Foroptoelectronic packaging experts and professionals in adjuncttechnologies, it provides an overview of today's state-of-the-arttechnologies, packages now on the drawing board, and the futuredirection of packaging types. For the novice, it lays down thefundamentals of optics and packaging. This incomparable textfeatures contributions from hands-on practitioners and,supplemented with extensive illustrations, it * Covers detector, semiconductor laser, and optical amplifierpackaging * Discusses waveguide technologies, free-space interconnects, andhybrid technologies * Examines communication system interconnection structure andfiber-optic networks in telecommunications * Explores array device packaging and flip-chip assembly for smartpixel arrays * Includes case studies of packaged subassemblies
This handbook provides the most comprehensive, up-to-date and easy-to-apply information on the physics, mechanics, reliability and packaging of micro- and opto-electronic materials. It details their assemblies, structures and systems, and each chapter contains a summary of the state-of-the-art in a particular field. The book provides practical recommendations on how to apply current knowledge and technology to design and manufacture. It further describes how to operate a viable, reliable and cost-effective electronic component or photonic device, and how to make such a device into a successful commercial product.
