PH 324 - Fiber Optics and Fiber Optic Sensors

2 lecture hours 2 lab hours 3 credits
This course provides a theoretical and experimental foundation of fiber optics, fiber optic communication, optical sources, detectors and fiber optic sensors. Topics include electromagnetic propagation, reflection and refraction, optical modes, dispersion, scattering, carrier loss, optical time-domain reflectometry, light-emitting and laser diodes, photonic crystals and band-gap fibers. Techniques and applications for fiber optic communication systems will be studied, including bit rate and bandwidth, wavelength-division multiplexing, filters, optical switching and coupling, and optical amplifiers. (prereq: PH 123  or PH 2020  and PH 2030  or PH-220 and PH-230)
