(*)Upon completing the course, students will possess the following skills. They are able to
- explain and summarize key models used in modern optics and photonics (k1/k2);
- describe and compare methods to coherently create, transport, modulate, and detect light (k2);
- understand the concepts of linear and nonlinear light-matter interaction (k2);
- engage with current research topics in the field and discuss recent developments (k4/k5).
