Compound Semiconductor Photonics

This proceeding is a collection of selected papers presented at Symposium O of Compound Semiconductor Photonics in the International Conference on Materials for Advanced Technology (ICMAT) which was held in Singapore from 28 June to 3 July 2009. The symposium covers a wide range of topics from fundamental semiconductor materials study to photonic device fabrication and application. The papers collected are of recent progress in the active and wide range of semiconductor photonics research. They include materials-related papers on III-As/P III-nitride quantum dot/wire/dash growth ZnO and chalcogenide and devices-related papers on photonic crystals VCSEL quantum dot/dash lasers LEDs waveguides solar cells and heterogeneous integration.
