Photonics
The science of generating and transmitting light (photons). It deals with light
starting in the infrared range, through visible light to ultraviolet light at
the highest frequency.
Optical Design
Optics is Science concerned with the production and propagation of light, the
changes it undergoes and produces, and closely related phenomena.
Illumination & Displays
Applications of optical engineering related to illumination systems are
called illumination engineering, and often involve solid-state lighting, light
emitting diodes, and displays.
Lasers & Sources
Optical electronic device that generates an intense beam of single color
light by pumping photons with more energy through collisions with other photons.
Fabrication & Lithography
Optoelectronic fabrication facilities includes photolithography,
dielectric deposition, contact metallization deposition and annealing, wet and
dry etching, along with other tools.
Optoelectronic Materials
All substances used in the construction of devices or instruments whose
function is to alter or control electromagnetic radiation in the ultraviolet,
visible, or infrared regions.
Optical Networking
Optical networks transmit data by sending laser light through filaments
of glass fiber. It is communications between computers, telephones and other
devices through light.
Biomedical & Imaging
The rich and growing diversity of optoelectronic devices is making
possible continuously expanding applications of optoelectronics in biomedical
engineering.
Nanotechnology
A field of applied science whose unifying theme is the control of matter
on the atomic and molecular scale, and the fabrication of devices that lie
within that size range.
Solar Cells / Energy
Solar cells are typically illuminated with sunlight and are
intended to convert solar energy into electrical energy.
