OPTOELECTRONICS
➢ Optoelectronics is the study and application of
electronic and devices that interact with light.
❖ Those electronics devices which source , detect and control light.
➢ Emitters:
convert electricity into light.
➢ Photomessive ( non-solid state) & photoreactors ( solid state devices)
convert light into electricity.
➢ Semiconductor diode that emits incoherent narrow spectrum light when electricity is passed.
➢ Forward bised P-N junction
P N
➢ Forward biased P-N junction and which emits visible light.
➢ charge carrier recombine and takes place when electron form N- side cross the junction and recombine with the holes on
P- side.
➢ Electrons are in higher conduction band in N-side
➢ Some of the energy difference in form of photons ( energy packets) or heat is formed.
➢ LED emits no light when in reversed biased.
➢ P type layer is kept uppermost
➢ N types is grown on substrate
➢ The metal anode connection are at the outer edge of the P-edge
➢ In order to avoid reabsorption process, LED are made of domed lenses
➢ A metal film is applied for reflecting light as much as possible and also protect cathod and wires
➢ Charge Carrier Recombine and LED work as light emitting Diodes
❖ Burglar Alarm System
❖ CRT
❖ image sensing circuit
in phone
❖ Silica fiber optical cables
❖ Seven segment Array of Color in LEDs
PHOTOMULTIPLIER TUBE
WHAT IS IT?
• Extremely sensitive detector of light in the ultraviolet, visible and near infrared
• Multiplies the signal produced by incident light by as much as 108
• single photons can be resolved
• High gain, low noise, high frequency response, and large area of collection
• A tiny and normally undetectable current becomes a much larger and easily measurable current
COMPONENTS
• Made of a glass vacuum tube
• Photocathode
• Several dynodes
• One anode
HOW IT WORKS
HOW IT WORKS
◼ Electron is released by the photocathode
◼ Electron is then multiplied by the electrodes
❑ Metal channel dynodes
◼ At the end of the chain is the collection electrode
❑ Anode
◼ The current flowing from the anode to ground is
directly proportional to the photoelectron flux
generated by the photocathode
