What are optoelectronic devices? Give the names of such major devices.
(N/A) Optoelectronic devices are semiconductor devices that convert light energy into electrical energy or vice versa,based on the interaction of light with semiconductor materials.
The major optoelectronic devices are as follows:
$(1)$ Photodiodes: These are used for detecting optical signals (photodetectors).
$(2)$ Light Emitting Diodes $(LED)$: These devices convert electrical energy into light energy.
$(3)$ Photovoltaic devices: These convert optical radiation into electricity (e.g.,solar cells).

For three circuit elements $A, B$ and $C$,following observations were made in lab:
$(a)$ element $A$ cannot conduct $d.c.$ but allows $a.c.$ through it.
$(b)$ element $B$ conducts both $AC$ and $DC$ but in one direction only.
$(c)$ Element $C$,when connected across $DC$,conducts only for one polarity and emits light whose intensity first increases and then decreases with increase in applied voltage.
The elements $A, B$ and $C$ are respectively identified as
