Integrated Photonics

4.0 credits

This course covers the propagation and interactions in optical waveguides. Topics to be covered include: the Goos-Haenchen effect; modes on the planar waveguide; coupled-mode theory; modes on the optical fiber; pulse broadening in optical fibers; coupling between guided-wave structures; waveguide devices such as semiconductor lasers; fiber lasers and amplifiers; passive components and electro-optics devices.
