EE 6333 - Integrated Optoelectronics and Photonics
Course focuses on the underlying physics and engineering behind devices that drive today’s optoelectronics technology. In this course students study important details of structural properties, band structure, electrical transport, and optical and magnetic properties of contemporary semiconductor structures. Effects of dimensional physics and strain, two important driving forces in modern technology, will be emphasized and discussed in the light of layered structures. Furthermore, students will have an opportunity to focus on selected topics including: elected advanced concepts in semiconductor band structure, energy transfer, defects, impurities/doping, spontaneous material polarization, electro-optic and magneto-optic effects. These are the key modern semiconductor concepts relevant to active novel optoelectronic devices. The course will have a format of recitation and discussion. Students will be required to use programming tools to solve more mathematically complex problems.
