Semiconductor photonics is a cross-discipline between materials, physics, chemistry, optics, and electronic devices, and the symposium considered a wide range of aspects from fundamental semiconductor materials to photonic device fabrication and application. The 59 selected papers examine such topics as solitons emission from a semiconductor circular ring resonator, a compact silicon electro-optic modulator based on a cross-waveguide resonator, electron transport in highly ordered anatase nanotube arrays for dye sensitized solar cells, determinants of bandgap energies in semiconductor nano-alloys, and synthesizing titanium dioxide nanoscrystals at different annealing times.

A collection of selected papers presented at the International Conference of Materials for Advanced Technology in 2009, this volume presents the recent progress in the active and wide-ranging research on semiconductor photonics. Topics include quantum structure growth, nanophotonic devices, photonic crystals, ZnO materials, solar cells, and heterogeneous integration. Leading to a better understanding of fundamental knowledge in electronic structures, carrier dynamics, and electron-photon-phonon interactions, this compilation will interest researchers in photonics, electronics, physics, and material science.
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.
