MATERIALS SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING WITH QUANTUM PHOTONICS

Credit Hours: 3 · Graduate

Introduction to the basic concepts of light-matter interaction with cavity electrodynamics, useful quantum (non-classical) properties of materials, and experimental techniques to probe/engineer materials with coherent or quantum light sources. Students are encouraged to have prior exposure to quantum mechanics and electronic properties of solids (or equivalent) before enrollment, although the principles will be refreshed at the beginning of the course. Cross-list: MSNE 512 . Recommended Prerequisite(s): Quantum Mechanics; Physical Properties of Solids or Solid State Physics.
