Abstract
This book reviews how to use an indirect transition-type semiconductor to construct light emitting diodes (LEDs) and lasers, which has not been possible with conventional methods employed in materials science and technology. First, this chapter surveys the problems to be solved. Some strategies and principles achieve solutions are reviewed. Detailed discussions of the theoretical aspects are described in Appendices A–E.
