This book is intended for scientists and engineers planning and building high-power electrical and optical systems, for programme managers of new systems that need high-power, high-speed switching and for physics and elecrtrical engineering university libraries. This text covers research and development in high-power, high-speed and optically-activated switches. It provides in-depth treatment of silicon and GaAs, linear and nonlinear high-gain photoconductive semiconductor switching, plus information on new applications such as multimegavolt, multimega-amp pulsed-power systems.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Kind of boring,
By Zev Green (New Jersey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: High-Power Optically Activated Solid-State Switches (Artech House Optoelectronics Library) (Hardcover)
Then again, look what your reading. If you are interrested asbout optics, read this book.
