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. |
|
Learning outcomes of the course :
|
| Bring a global overview of fields and applications in modern optics |
|
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :
|
| Knowledge of principles in geometric and physical optics (specific course teached during 2nd or 3rd Bachelor is mandatory) |
|
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
|
| 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 |
|
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
|
| Theory : 30h
during 1st period
Labs : 1st and optionaly 2nd period |
