This optics course is matching the needs of Ingeneers. Physical and geometrical optics are re-formulated. Then, deeper matters are teached.
The aim of the course is to bring an overall view of the application domains and technologies relating to modern optics.
Concepts are presented in a phenomenologic approach with physical understanding. |
 |
| Course objective : | Bring a global overview of fields and applications in modern optics |
 |
| Prerequisites : | Knowledge of principles in geometric and physical optics (specific course teached during 2nd or 3rd Bachelor is mandatory) |
 |
| Workshops : | 20 h (mandatory) Exercice sessions : 5h based on ray-tracing software introduction Personnal Investigation : bibliographic analysis of a specific field in advanced photonics : 6h Laboratory sessions : 5h (laser and holographic techniques understanding) Visits of Laboratories and Industries at Liege area (optics and lasers related) : 4h |
 |
| Organization : | Theory : 30h during 1st period
Labs : 1st and optionaly 2nd period |
 |
| Written notes : | Copy of slides (pdf)
