Course Information
Catalog Course Description
This course will cover nano-optical devices and transducers and their applications for manipulating light on the nanoscale. Interaction of light with nano-structures, thin-films, metallic nano-antennas has many potential applications. This course is intended to teach students the principals of nano-optics encountered in different applications. Therefore, this course can be of interest for students in many departments. In addition to homework and exams, individual projects will be assigned to students to apply their new knowledge of nano-optical systems in different applications.
