Everything about Optoelectronic totally explained
Optoelectronics is the study and application of
electronic devices that source, detect and control
light, usually considered a sub-field of
photonics. In this context,
light often includes invisible forms of radiation such as
gamma rays,
X-rays,
ultraviolet and
infrared, in addition to visible light. Optoelectronic devices are electrical-to-optical or optical-to-electrical
transducers, or instruments that use such devices in their
operation.
Electro-optics is often erroneously used as a synonym, but is in fact a wider branch of
physics that deals with all interactions between light and
electric fields, whether or not they form part of an electronic device.
Optoelectronics is based on the
quantum mechanical effects of
light on
semiconducting materials, sometimes in the presence of
electric fields.
Important applications of optoelectronics include:
