COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Introducing students to silicon photonics and approach based on silicon as building material. Studying the physics of silicon integrated components on micro and nano level. Introducing students to developed integrated devices and building optoelectronic blocks, its structure, operating principles and performances. Identification of new structures and directions of further development in the field of silicon photonics.

WHY THIS COURSE?

It is expected that student: (1) acquire basic knowledge of physics of integrated optoelectronic components, (2) be familiar with the existing silicon optoelectronic devices and (3) get insight into the open theoretical issues and identify problems that need to be resolved in the way to make cheap optoelectronic integration.
