Research
Professor
Yariv's research group has a history of pioneering the field of
optoelectronics, as well as opening up new fields of study. Distributed
Feedback (DFB) Semiconductor Lasers, Integrated Optoelectronic
Circuits, Optical Phase Conjugation, External Cavity Tunable Semiconductor
Lasers, Quantum Well Infrared Photodetectors (QWIP's), and all-fiber
add/drop filters have found their beginnings here in this research
group. Today, advances continue to be made in the research thrusts
of analog and digital signal propagation in fibers, photonic bandgap
crystal devices, fiber lasers, and sources for Wavelength Division
Multiplexing (WDM).
