Light emitting diodes and injection lasers for fiber optic communication systems
Abstract
A review of light emitting diodes (LEDs) and injection lasers (ILs), which are suited as signal sources in fiber optic communication systems, is presented. LED and IL structures and their important operational characteristics, such as efficiency, power out, radiance spectral emission, and lifetime are discussed.
