TEACHING

Fall: 2005, 2007 : EECE 395 Photonic Crystals

The purpose of this course is to introduce photonic crystals as a means of controlling the optical properties of materials and to focus on several applications in the areas of waveguiding, optical switching, lasers, and biosensors.

Spring: 2006, 2007, 2008 : EECE 252 Signal Processing and Communications

The purpose of this course is to introduce a variety of concepts in analog, digital, and optical communications.

Fall: 2006: EECE 291 Optoelectronics

Optoelectronics is the merging of photonics and electronics. This course introduces the concepts of planar waveguides including dispersion, attenuation, and nonlinear effects; coupling mechanisms; lasers and LEDs; photodetectors; and modulators.
