Course Content
Review of physics of optoelectronic devices. Heterostructures. Optical absorption, emission and refraction processes. Junction theory. Light emitting diodes. Laser diodes. Photodetectors. Modulators. Photonic switches. Integrated photonic devices. Innovative optoelectronic devices.
Objectives of the Course
The aim of this course is to know optoelectronic devices from a semiconductor point of view. Each device is described in its basic form, and then various improvements and drive circuitry are indicated. First objective is to understand basic semiconductor physics and metal-semiconductor and PN junction performance. Next aims are know the light emission process in LEDs and LASERs devices and their operating parameters, and to understand basic performance of light sensor/receivers as Photoconductors, Solar Cells, Photodiodes and Charge Coupled Devices.
