Short description: |
A course on computational methods for microoptics and photonics. |
Full description: |
The course: 1. Linear systems; impulse response and the modulation transfer function - application to diffractive optics, and to the development of diffractive and holographic elements. 2. Finite difference method - various discretization schemes; boundary conditions; stability conditions; 3. Fundamentals of the beam propagation method (BPM) - application to the analysis of waveguide elements, and to the determination of the modal structure of optical waveguides. 4. Finite difference time domain method (FDTD). 5. Plane-wave decomposition method - calculation of the modal structure of photonic crystals. 6. Selected applications of numerical methods to the optics of photonic crystal, to analysis of sub-wavelength diffractive gratings, and plasmonic elements. The exercises have a numerical character and require the knowledge of Python or some other language with similar capabilities eg. Matlab. The oral exam includes a discussion on the numerical work done during the course. |
