E3592: Introduction to Optoelectronics in HSSP Summer 2010 (Jul. 11, 2010 - Jul. 11, 2011)
How does my CD player work? What does it mean to connect to the internet? Why are LEDs round? Can the sun power my home? Do you have questions like these that you must have answered. Optoelectronic devices combine electricity and light in many different ways in everyday applications constantly surrounding us. This course will take you from the basic physics of light and matter to the many everyday applications of optoelectronic devices. Topics we will cover include: -Solar Cells -LEDs -Fiber Optics -Lasers We will do at least two mini-projects that combine different devices and apply the material that we cover in class. Depending on class interest, we will try to cover as many projects, topics and applications as we can. This course will be a survey of many of the interesting topics in optoelectronics research and technology. We hope to help you gain an intuition for this topic without the college-level math and science that is typically involved. If you enjoy or are curious about playing with light, definitely come join us!
