Goal(s)

This courses aims at using the knowledge previously acquired in quantum physics, solid state physics and electronic devices physics to describe the interactions between electrons and photons in a semiconductor. Spontaneous and stimulated emissions are described as well as absorption. Then the behaviours of the devices based on these three physical phenomena are described. Therefore, LED, photodiodes, photoconductors and laser diodes are studied.
