OS6053 Topics on Laser Applications
Last Revised: 2018-04-11
Course Objectives
Some selected topics on laser applications including the materials processing, laser micromachining, laser measurement, biotechnology, laser spectroscopy, laser display, and optical communications will be studied and discussed by covering both theoretical design principles and experimental realizations of systems. For this course, I suppose you have accomplished the courses “Electro-optics”, “Laser physics”, and “Waveguide optics” or have the equivalent background knowledge.
