Course Code: KIE4017
Course Title: Optical Waveguides
Credit Hour: 2
Course Description: The course will provide an introduction to optical waveguide analysis, and will then focus on issues relating to integrated optical devices such as design, fabrication and characterisation. We will first look at the photonic value chain, and make the distinction between fibre-based, bulk, and integrated optics. Applications involving integrated optics will also be elaborated. These applications include communication, and sensing.
