Description
Instructor(s)/Supervisor(s)/Coordinator(s): Kristiaan NEYTSThe course explains the optical properties of isotropic (dielectric, metallic, semiconducting) and anisotropic (crystalline, liquid crystalline) materials, and the influence of external fields (electric, magnetic, strain). The optical properties are discussed in various applications (lenses, mirrors, gratings, wave plates, wave plates, modulators, liquid crystal devices.
