4.0 out of 5 stars Not the complete story - - but certainly a useful book, March 22, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Subtitled 'The Complete Story' - it is not - it's just the early years of the story. Whilst this is a very instructive book and a great introduction to the blue laser diode story and technical detail, plenty of others contributed significantly to the blue laser diode story -- but that is not much of what you read in this 'bio' of Nakamura-san. At least you get some brief references to other teams' contributions.

The book reads like a set of 'cut-and-pastes' from Nakamura and his team's research papers - which is no bad thing. It's certainly good to have so much really useful material in one place.

This review is from: The Blue Laser Diode: GaN based Light Emitters and Lasers (Hardcover)
This book is by far, the best book I have read about the latest Blue Laser Technology. I give the content and organization of information my highest regard.
