International researchers in nitride materials and device technology provide an introduction for newcomers to the field and a reference for experienced researchers in this first of a two-part volume discussing the fundamental optical properties of III-nitride semiconductors. Recent advances in this field have led to intense interest in electronic and optoelectronic applications. Nine contributions report on time-resolved studies of semiconductors and discuss the defects and structural properties of GaN and related compounds.
