Applications of optoelectronic devices

Optoelectronics fundamentally pertains to interactions between light and the electrons within the materials when light propagates across them. 1Optoelectronic devices based on inorganic or organic materials are electronic and optical equipment that give out, guide, modulate and receive light.

The various arenas functioning on optoelectronic principles are:

Light Emitting Semiconductor Diodes (LEDs): used in lighting for display boards, backlighting, internal and external lighting in automobiles

Semiconductor LASERs

Optical detectors and receivers: photodiodes, phototransistors, imaging sensors, UV to IR sensors in arenas such as measurement instruments, industrial production equipment, and communication devices.

Optical fibre devices: in the telecommunication industry

Optical modulator devices: in digital fibre optic communication systems, military systems, microwave photonics

Optical amplifiers

Infrared systems: Military, medical, meteorology, energy conservation applications etc

Organic light-emitting devices – display and lightning

Silicon photonics

Nanoplasmonic optoelectronics – in the solar industry

Electro-optic modulator.
