✦ Synopsis

"The book introduces basic methods and solutions to generate optical communication signals in soliton form. It includes topics such as the usage of micro-ring resonators as passive devices, novel techniques to generate optical solitons in nonlinear photonics semiconductor waveguides and new techniques for data transmission using stable optical signals as soliton pulses. This book focussed on readers in the fields of nonlinear physics, photonics, optics, engineering communication, signal processing and optical soliton communication. The waveguide fabrication and data analysis can be a main reference for those working on designing or characterization of integrated photonics systems."-- Read more...
