“…More examples of PLD being used for photonics/optoelectronics applications were published in 2011 in a book chapter written by Ullrich Bruno at AFRL. [517] In this chapter, he provides several examples of materials, including CdS and GaAs, which were deposited through PLD methods in order to create optoelectronic devices. Specifically, he discusses how low temperature PLD processes are ideal for the production of device prototypes, such as the GaAs-on-glass merger and GaAs/Si photodiodes.…”
