Most of the papers of this special issue deal with arrays of elemental detectors or emitters. In spite of diversity in detail, the first six papers have as a common theme the access problem. Performance limits are set by access difficulties, rather than by the properties of the elemental optical transducers themselves. An obvious parallel occurs in LSI, where the difficulties are not found at the individual gate level, Thus, though the subject is optoelectronics, the papers dwell mostly on topics such as organization of access circuitry, scanning noise, and packaging. The consideration of such topics also indicates that the key problems of all-solid-state transducer arrays are being identified and mastered, hastening their impact in the marketplace.

Abstract Optoelectronics embodies a broad range of scientific and technological knowledge and enables the design and application of devices with both optical and electronic inputs and outputs. Accordingly, optoelectronic devices operate in a greater variety of modes and are more functional than their purely electronic counterparts. This rich variety of operational modes has had an enormous positive influence on lightwave communication systems, on devices for light‐to‐electric energy conversion, and on optoelectronics‐based switching and logic elements. These devices also underlie many innovations such as bar‐code pricing, laser printers, laser readers, etc. Optoelectronic devices have unique abilities to monitor the amplitudes and temporal characteristics of radiation in the ultraviolet (UV), visible, and infrared (IR) regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Moreover, optoelectronic devices are capable of producing radiation spanning the UV, visible, and IR spectra at ever‐increasing power levels and with temporal characteristics that may be controlled with sub‐nanosecond precision. These novel capabilities and expanded levels of functionality will continue to open many avenues for biomedical applications, thereby expanding the list of current applications such as laser surgery. In many cases, the optical properties of these devices are determined by the electronic properties of the materials used in the construction of the active components of an optoelectronic device or system. Optoelectronic devices span the range from simple devices, such as a detector of light based on the photoelectric effect discovered by Albert Einstein (1879–1955) in 1905, to modern monolithically integrated semiconductor heterostructure devices incorporating miniature lasers, photodiodes, and electronic components, such as amplifiers, all grown on the same semiconductor substrate. These devices generally function for the purpose of or by employing techniques for the processing of optical and electronic signals. The variety of optoelectronic devices has increased enormously in the last few decades because of advances in the materials science underlying the growth, fabrication, and production of components for optoelectronic devices and systems. The rich and growing diversity of optoelectronic devices is making possible continuously expanding applications of optoelectronics in biomedical engineering.

L. Solymár, Donald D. Walsh, R.R.A. Syms · 2024

Abstract Reviews the materials and components that are complementary to lasers in optoelectronic systems, starting with the photodiodes needed for light detection and the light emitting diodes used for broadband emission (and especially for energy-efficient lighting). Continues to non-linear optical materials and their applications in volume holography and optical phase conjugation, and the related phenomenon of acousto-optic diffraction. Explains the operation of integrated optic components such as waveguides, modulators and switches used in optical fibre telecommunications, and bulk optical components such as spatial light modulators, non-linear Fabry-Perot cavities, MEMS-based optical scross-connect switches and electro-absorption modulators used in free-space optical systems.

Although devices that combine light with electronics are by no means new, the name ‘optoelectronics’ was coined within the last twenty years. The same revolution that replaced the valve with the transistor, and subsequently complex transistor circuits, produced an increase in the number and types of devices combining light and electronics. The term ‘optoelectronic’ came into use as a description for what has now become a large and important branch of electronic technology.

These recommendations are specifically for polymers and polymer systems showing a significant response to an electromagnetic field or one of its components (electric field or magnetic field), i.e., for electromagnetic-field-responsive polymer materials. The structures, processes, phenomena and quantities relating to this interdisciplinary field of materials science and technology are herein defined. Definitions are unambiguously explained and harmonized for wide acceptance by the chemistry, physics, polymer and materials science communities. A survey of typical electromagnetic-field-responsive polymers is included.
