ECE 598 class schedule data for fall 2008
CRN	Type	Section	Time	Day	Location	Instructor	Section Details
51560	Lecture	KC	9:00AM -9:50AM	MWF	241 Everitt Laboratory	Choquette, K	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/25/08-12/10/08 Credit: 4 hours Section Info: Topic: Nano-Photonics. Prerequisites: ECE 455 or equivalent and PHY 486 or ECE 487 or equivalent. Nanophotonics defined as the fusion between nanotechnology and photonics, is an emerging contemporary area of research with new applications. This course will examine the quantum mechanical interaction between light and matter, with a focus on the fundamentals of the optical properties of nanometer scale structures of semiconductors, metals, and composites. Nanoscale optical phenomena such as plasmonics, cavity electrodynamics, sub-wavelength gratings, and meta-materials will be examined. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
