Learning outcomes
|
Basic knowledge from the area of modern photonics will be provided to the student with the emphasis to structures enabling to guide, manipulate, and detect optical fields. Planar waveguides will be studied together with optical fibers. Attention will be devoted to various passive and atvive optical and optoelectronic elements including modulators, attenuators, deflectors, etc. Properties of both linear and nonlinear layered structures will be analyzed. Excursion to laboratories of nonlinear quantum optics will occur at the end of the lecture.
Student will have basic orientation in photonics that will help him in his/her further MSc. study in photonics (nanotechnology).
