Holder(s) :  Serge Habraken
Language :  French language
Course contents :  Theory: 20h
Lab Training: 15h
This course is intended for students who desire to focus on optical applications.
Theory serves to introduce the concepts.
Lab training is more elaborated than Bachelor's Labs.
Course objective :  The main goal is to give an overview of tmodernl optics and photonics. The relevant technologies are detailed
Prerequisites :  Basic level in optics is required: geometrical and physical optics, as teached in the Bachelor degree.
Workshops :  15 h (mandatory):
- Personal report: a brief review of a high technology field in instrumental optics: 4h
- Laboratories: 5h using an optical bench orineted to lasers and holography.
- Lab visits: Company specialized in optics and lasers) (4h)
Organization :  Academic lectures : 20 h
Schedule to be defined
Written notes :  Course support: slide copies are delivered to the students
