Course description and aims
We will discuss light and matter related topics on the basis of dielectric physics approach that allows one to evaluate and utilize these phenomena in materials and devices. The light and matter, and their links will be discussed followed by understandings of electromagnetism, quantum physics, fundamentals on light and matters. We will see how light, both as a classical electromagnetic wave and as a quantum, bridges world of electronics and that of light. Example on evaluating method, applications in electronic devices, and background theories will be introduced. Please get ideas on light and matter related topics and new research subject on the basis of dielectric physics approach.
This lecture is mainly planned for students in Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. Of course, anybody who are going to learn Fundamentals of Light and Matter are welcome. For the students who completed Fundamentals of Light and Matter I, this lecture is highly recommended. The classes will provide follow-up contents and give further advanced concepts related to light and matter.
