The present article attempts to summarize some recent developments from the point of view of a semiconductor physicist. It deals with that area of basic research where OB and semiconductor optics overlap. The paper treats the fundamental physical mechanisms giving rise to optical non-linearity at the band edge of a semiconductor and also describes how OB can achieved by combining these non-linearities with feedback. Device-related aspects are only marginally considered.
