|
Credit Hours: 3.00. An introduction of nonlinear optics. After a review of linear effects of electromagnetic fleld, several nonlinear optical processes and applications will be discussed. These include electro-optic switches and modulators, harmonic light generators, sum and difference frequency mixing, parametric amplifiers and oscillators, and phase conjugate mirrors. Students will also be introduced to modern applications of nonlinear optics including topics such as two-photon absorption, Raman spectroscopy, and other transient effects and surface effects. Typically offered Fall Spring.
