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 courses teached during 1st and 2nd Bachelor) |
 |
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
 |
| 20 h (mandatory and taking part of the evaluation process):
Exercice sessions : ray-tracing software introduction
Personnal Investigation : bibliographic analysis of a specific field in advanced photonics
Laboratory sessions : laser and holographic techniques understanding
Visits of Laboratories and Industries at Liege area (optics and lasers related) |
 |
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
 |
| Theory : 30h during 1st period
Labs : 1st and optionaly 2nd period |
 |
Recommended or required readings :
