Optoelectronics is an increasingly important technological field with exciting implications for fields including defence, consumer electronics, computing and education through the merging of electronics and optics. In this new book, the contributors offer high-quality research on current technical and methodological issues relating to the applications of optoelectronics in a range of fields. In the first part, the authors discuss optoelectronic devices and their properties. Featured topics include optical and electrical spectrum analysis of devices and optoelectronic chaotic circuits. In the second part, applications of optoelectronic devices are described and reviewed. Topics include the effect of quantum-well base geometry on optoelectronic characteristics of a transistor laser, and anomalous transient photocurrent. Finally, in part three, optoelectronics in materials science is explored. Subjects examined include fabrication of silicon-rich silicon oxide thin films, and materials including photoresponsive polymeric materials and cuprous oxide. This is a varied book that will appeal to students and more advanced researchers with interests both in the design and configuration of optoelectronic devices, and their applications in many scientific contexts.
