Course Content
|
This capsule will cover extensively the basics of optical theories and basic phenomena of light. Subsequently, more advanced knowledge on optics and photonics will be built on this basic introduction. The contents of this capsule will include: Ray Optics, Wave Optics, Beam Optics, Fourier Optics, Electromagnetic Optics, Polarization, Photonic Crystal Optics, Guided-Wave Optics, Fiber Optics, Resonator Optics, Photon Optics, Semiconductor Optics, LEDs, Lasers, Photodetectors, Electro-optics, Optical Switches and Fiber Optic Communication
In this course, we will have two projects. The first project will relate to the applications of classical theories of light and the second project will relate to the photonic devices.
Possible Project Topics:
(i) Design and Implementation of an Optical Microscope,
(ii) Design and Implementation of an Optical Telescope,
(iii) Design and Implementation of an Absorption Spectrometer,
(iv) Design and Implementation of a Raman Spectrometer,
(v) Fabrication and Characterization of Q/OLEDs
(vi) Design and Implementation of Laser-based Lighting
(vii) Waveguide design,
(viii) Cavity design,
(ix) Fabrication and Characterization of Color-Converting LEDs
