Exhibition on Lasers, Optics & Photonics

Optoelectronics & Devices

Optoelectronics is a rapidly expanding technology sector in which electronic devices are used to source, detect, control, and mechanise light. Electronic devices for emitting, modulating, transmitting, and sensing light are included in this discipline of electronics. The quantum mechanical effects of light on electronic materials, semiconductors, and in the presence of electric fields are the basis of optoelectronics. Electrical-to-optical or optical-to-electrical transducers are optoelectronic devices. It is in the sphere of technology that light is linked to power. Optoelectronic devices are crucial parts of solid state lighting systems, optical communication systems, and power production systems. Examples include light emitting diodes (LEDs), semiconductor lasers, photodetectors, optical fibres, and solar cells.
