Preface
The basics of photonics, which is an optical high-tech technology, use light sources and photodetectors and different kinds of waveguides for its applications. The bandwidth of products and devices on the market is present in every part of our daily lives. Starting from laser pointers to cash systems in the market halls down to telecommunications and lighting systems for cars and lamps, the technology has matured rapidly giving the world long-term stable devices. Electrical and optical state-of-the-art technologies to package the devices are important to ensure high-volume, low-cost devices with high performance. So the material price of DVD is higher than the production costs of the high-volume device. Smart companies have developed inexpensive packages and automated mounting technologies for photonic products, and they have to develop robust, special packages for high-performance telecommunications and IT devices. Optical communications technology has undergone in the last two decades, a breathtaking development that was not even in sight of the most daring augurs. In long-distance networks, fiber-optic technology was indeed already used, but the industry had been hesitant to this new technology
