ECEN 5606 - Optical Laboratory I
3 credit hours
Catalog Description:
The optics lab consists of fourteen
optics experiments which introduce the techniques and devices essential
to modern optics. These include characterization of sources,
photodetectors, and modulators, use of interferometers, spectrometers,
and holograms, and experimentaiton with fiber optics and Fourier
optics.
Prerequisite:
Undergraduate optics course.
Textbook:
Literature and course notes.
Goals:
Intimate familiarity with techniques of
optical experimentation.
Topics:
- Source detectors, fibers, crystals,
holograms, interferometers, spectrometers, acousto-optics, spatial light
modulators, nondestructive testing, Fourier optics, photo refractive
crystals.
Computer Usage:
- Data analysis of lab results.
Laboratory Projects:
- See above.
