Optoelectronics
12/10/2008
“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.”
