F95091. Introduction to Optoelectronics
Academic department:Department
of Physics
Units:3-1-8
Requirement:F 00873
Equivalence:None
General aim of the course:To
introduce wave propagation in dispersive
media and applied semiconductor physics to understand current optoelectronic
technologies. In particular, generation and detection of electromagnetic
radiation for lightwave system technologies in the near infrared range will
be discussed in depth accompanied with experimental and computational lab
sessions. Great emphasis will be made in linking theory to experiment.
