Possible Topics for Graduate Student Presentation: Magneto-Optics Fiber Bragg Gratings Photometers FBG Vibration Sensing Single-photon Detectors Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers Optical MEMS Photoconductivity Photonic Crystal Fibers Waveguide WDM devices Electroabsorption Modulators Photonic Metamaterials Coupling of Light in a Fiber Optical Coherence Tomography Microring Resonators Quantum Dot Lasers
Presentations should minimally address the following topics: What is the topic of the paper? Briefly explain the theory of operation. What are the primary uses? What are the limitations? To where is the technology moving?
Set 0 Introduction
IMPORTANT: Please note that this is a graduate level course that is open to qualified undergraduate students. The course will be taught at the graduate level and all students will be expected to perform at this level. The only distinction between undergraduate and graduate students will be in the grading policy as previously outlined. A working knowledge of electromagnetic field theory and solid state devices is expected of all students in this class.

Why Study Photonics? Medicine and Health Optics and photonics are utilized in numerous medical devices that help to save lives. Imaging equipment used for CAT, MRI and PET scans, as well as mammography, aid in the diagnosis of disease. Defense and Homeland Security Science and engineering research is the basis for many of the technologies currently being deployed to prevent and detect chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and conventional terrorist attacks, as well as treat victims.

Why Study Photonics? Telecommunications Fiber optics connect the world through high-speed communications. In fact, the World Wide Web was developed by optics researchers. Todays optics research is bringing higher-speed communications to our homes via fiber technology enabling advanced data transmissions, like video streaming, and other broadband applications. Consumer Technologies Many of todays must-have technologies such as digital cameras, high definition TVs and PDAs, were developed through optics and photonics research. Further research is expected to yield even more consumer products designed to enhance quality of life.

Why Study Photonics? An Example From Telecommunications Wider bandwidth than copper or microwave links. The bandwidth of optical fiber is about 25 THz Fiber attenuation is quite small, < 0.2 dB/km (The attenuation of coax is roughly 200 dB/km at 100 MHz, 625 dB/km at 1 GHz) Optical systems are smaller and lighter than microwave systems Greater security EMI immunity Availability of components
