This book is devoted to optical semiconductor devices and their numerous applications in telecommunications, optoelectronics, and consumer electronics-areas where signal processing or the transmission of signals across fiber optic cables is paramount. It introduces a new generation of devices that includes optical modulators, quantum well (QW) lasers, and photodiodes and explores new applications of more established devices such as semiconductor lasers, light-emitting diodes, and photodiodes. Mitsuo Fukuda examines the material properties, operation principles, fabrication, packaging, reliability, and applications of each device and offers a unique industrial perspective, discussing everything engineers and scientists need to know at different phases of research, development, and production. This guide to the state-of-the-art of optical semiconductor devices: * Helps you choose the right device for a given application. * Covers important performance data such as temperature and optical feedback noise in lasers. * Highlights epitaxial growth techniques and fabrication for each device. * Features one hundred figures and an extensive bibliography. * Provides a clear and concise treatment, unencumbered by excessive theory Optical Semiconductor Devices is an essential resource for engineers and researchers in telecommunications and optoelectronics, equipment designers and manufacturers, and graduate students and scholars interested in this rapidly evolving field.

This comparative tutorial describes the reasons behind device failures and provides practical information on what can be done to minimize failure-prone designs and enhance device reliability. The text demonstrates how, with such advantages as smaller size, low-cost and simple operation, LEDs are well suited for a wide range of applications - especially in the field of optical fibre communication. This book should prove of interest to engineers and scientists in research, design, manufacturing and development of semiconductor lasers, LEDs and optical transmission systems.

What would happen if God were to bring ten new believers into the Church in a single day? Would we be able to disciple them? What if it were a hundred people in a week? Do you think it's possible to receive a thousand new believers a month? If a million people were saved, would the Church be ready to disciple them? The Lord wants us to prepare workers for the harvest - people with a simple message of love and service, who can pass that message on. If we want to see many, many people come to Christ, then we will need to find a way for them to be discipled and to become disciplers. This book from the Japanese house church provides one way for any Christian to become a discipler: it gives simple, practical ways to live out the Gospel, to explain the Gospel, and to pass the baton of discipleship on to others.

“The wonderful privilege of being a mentor is to be able to catch a glimpse of what God wants to do in someone’s life, what He wants to achieve through their life―the dream that God has for them.” Helping people grow is not just a job for the pastor or the minister. Anyone can have that privilege. It’s not a matter of special wisdom or technique. It’s about coming alongside people and bringing them to God―and watching and wondering as He does the rest. The first mentoring handbook to come out of Asia, Mentoring Like Barnabas provides down-to-earth and practical tips for those mentoring Asians and non-Asians alike.

Advanced Laser Diode Reliability focuses on causes and effects of degradations of state-of-the-art semiconductor laser diodes. It aims to provide a tool for linking practical measurements to physical diagnostics. The book reviews the current technologies, addressing their peculiar details that can promote specific failure mechanisms. Two sections support this kernel: a) failure analysis techniques, procedures and examples; and, b) device-oriented laser modeling and parameter extraction.Provides natural continuity with the most widespread existing textbooksOffers an extension to new failure mechanisms, new technologies, new application fields and new environmentsIntroduces a specific self-consistent model for the physical description of a laser diode, expressed in terms of practically measurable quantitiesIntroduces and explores the application of a practical measurement tool for linking failure modes to failure mechanisms

"A breadth of research... based on careful missiological study... could hold an important key to the advance of the Kingdom of God in the land of the rising sun." - C. Peter Wagner   What would a truly Japanese church look like - a church contextualized to Japanese needs, that sought to answer Japanese questions from a Japanese worldview? To find out, we first need to find out what those Japanese questions are and to understand how the Japanese worldview works!   This study unpacks the social and religious assumptions that make up the Japanese way of seeing the world, and examines the cycle of rituals that make up a Japanese religious life. It then brings these views and assumptions into dialogue with the ecclesiology of the Apostle Paul and of contemporary Western theologians, producing new images of Church which resonate with a Japanese heart, and suggests new rituals which redeem and transform Japanese religious symbols.
