Sommario/riassunto

Advances in optical fibre based communications systems have played a crucial role in the development of the information highway. By offering a single mode oscillation and narrow spectral output, distributed feedback (DFB) semiconductor laser diodes offer excellent optical light sources as well as optical filters for fibre based communications and dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems. This comprehensive text focuses on the basic working principles of DFB laser diodes and optical filters and details the development of a new technique for enhanced system performance.Consi

Sommario/riassunto

«L’immaginazione collettiva ha relegato a lungo Giacomo Matteotti nel pantheon dei martiri antifascisti, esemplificati per appartenenza alle famiglie politiche, in modo da rendere visibile la dimensione unitaria della Resistenza, e con essa dell’identità repubblicana. Questa tradizionale rappresentazione ha lasciato in ombra quella del dirigente politico di grande spessore intellettuale, oltre che civile e morale.» (Dall’introduzione)
