DENVER, Colo., Sept. 12, 2008 – The market for green photonic components could exceed $100 billion by 2015, according to Michael Lebby, CEO of the Optoelectronics Industry Development Association (OIDA).  The Washington-based nonprofit held its Green Photonics forum this week to examine the role of optoelectronics in a sustainable future. OIDA is finding a common interest in reducing power and consumption in such diverse markets as optical communication components, LEDs, solid-state lighting and solar photovoltaic cells. The Denver forum is the prelude to a May 2009 conference in Santa Clara called “Optomism.” The...Read full article

    metrology
    Metrology is the science and practice of measurement. It encompasses the theoretical and practical aspects of measurement, including the development of measurement standards, techniques, and instruments, as well as the application of measurement principles in various fields. The primary objectives of metrology are to ensure accuracy, reliability, and consistency in measurements and to establish traceability to recognized standards. Metrology plays a crucial role in science, industry,...
    optoelectronics
    Optoelectronics is a branch of electronics that focuses on the study and application of devices and systems that use light and its interactions with different materials. The term "optoelectronics" is a combination of "optics" and "electronics," reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of this field. Optoelectronic devices convert electrical signals into optical signals or vice versa, making them crucial in various technologies. Some key components and applications of optoelectronics include: ...
    photonics
    The technology of generating and harnessing light and other forms of radiant energy whose quantum unit is the photon. The science includes light emission, transmission, deflection, amplification and detection by optical components and instruments, lasers and other light sources, fiber optics, electro-optical instrumentation, related hardware and electronics, and sophisticated systems. The range of applications of photonics extends from energy generation to detection to communications and...
