Course description and aims
The students study light propagation, reflection and refraction on the basis of Maxwell equation. The students also study refractive indexes of matters from microscopic and macroscopic points of view. In addition, topics of nonlinear optics, surface plasmons and metamaterials are lectured for understanding nanophotonics.
This lecture is for the students who have studied "Fundamentals of Light and Matter I" or have equivalent knowledge. Students are encouraged to have taken the course "Fundamentals of Light and Matter I".
Student learning outcomes
The students will be able to understand:
(a) light propagation, reflection and refraction on the basis of Maxwell equation.
(b) refractive indexes of matters from microscopic and macroscopic points of view.
(c) nonlinear optics, surface plasmons and metamaterials are lectured for understanding nanophotonics.
Keywords

Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.

None
Reference books, course materials, etc.
None
Assessment criteria and methods
After the lecture, students will have exercise problems. The points will be approximately assigned to the final exam (70%) and exercises (30%).
The final exam will be made in a face-to-face manner (not on-line).
