Course Information:

Fundamental concepts for Electromagnetic Waves in Optoelectronics, including the mathematical methods, physical concepts, device ideas, and simulation techniques. Extensions and applications of these basic concepts to update research fields will also be addressed. Although this course is given primarily for the first year graduate students, those who are undergraduates or senior graduates are encouraged to take this course. Background: Electromagnetism I, II.
