Optoelectronic components produced by CVD include semiconductor lasers, light-emitting diodes (LED), photodetectors, photovoltaic cells, imaging tubes, laser diodes, optical waveguides, Impact diodes, Gunn diodes, mixer diodes, varactors, photocathodes, and HEMT (high electron mobility transistor). Major applications are listed in Table 15.1.El... 

Although the element is a metalloid, the long, brittle, crystals have a metallic shine. The white, tasteless oxide (arsenic trioxide As203) has been famous and notorious ("inheritance powder") even after centuries traces can be found in bodies. The arsenic compound "Salvarsan" was first used by Paul Ehrlich for the treatment of syphilis — the start of chemotherapy. Popular today as a semiconducting material. Component of LEDs (light-emitting diodes) and lasers. Arsenic hardens lead, used earlier in letter-press printing, today only for lead shot. 

The development in field of optoelectronics, digital components and light emitting diodes and laser diodes is of particular importance in manufacturing commercially attractive instruments. 

Colorless gas with a mild odor described as fishy or like garlic. It is detectable at 0.5 ppm. Used as a doping agent for solid-state electronic components, in the preparation of gallium arsenide and glass dyes, and in the manufacture of light-emitting diodes.

The components of the instrument are similar to absorptiometry but their relative positions are changed in order to catch the reflected radiation. In most of these instruments, rather than incorporating a monochromator, a light-emitting diode (LED) of a specific wavelength is used to produce the incident radiation. 

Materials development and synthesis is another important dual-use type of chemistry. Developments over the past few decades include a number of elec-troitic materials and their processing, fuel cells and batteries, photoresist and semiconductor synthesis, high-performance composites (structural components) and nanocomposite materials, colloidal nanoparticle technology, solid-state lasers, and light-emitting diodes. 

Presently, the studies on porous silicon are considered to be a very promising field for advanced research oriented in the photonic materials to make light emitting diodes (LED), and mostly as sensors and biosensors of various components in solutions as well as in gaseous phases. 

The photoconductivity of polysilanes was described in Section 5.8, and their electroluminescence is covered in Section 5.9.2. These properties make polysilanes possible components of polymer light-emitting diodes, either as charge transport layers or as the actual emissive materials.146 A drawback of the polysilanes is their photodegradation under ultraviolet irradiation, a problem which must be overcome if polysilanes are to become commercially useful. 

Two principal applications of conjugated oligomers (polymers)-NCs composites or hybrids as components of electronic devices can be envisioned in photovoltaic cells (PCs) and in light emitting diodes (LEDs). Both applications will be discussed below.
