Optoelectronic Materials and Devices

NPTEL and Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur via YouTube

Overview

Instructors: Prof. Deepak Gupta and Prof. Monica Katiyar, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, IIT Kanpur.

This course is offered to introduce students to the Materials Science and Engineering basics as well as the applications in optoelectronics and semiconductor devices. The course is divided into four modules: The first module introduces the electronic structure of materials; the Second module discusses electrical properties of metal, semiconductors and insulators; the Third module discusses optical properties of materials; the Fourth module introduces basic devices - p-n junctions, their application in solar cells and light-emitting diodes, MOS devices, transistors.
