Abstract:
This course will focus on nano devices and their applications in the optical fields. The material will prepare students with principle physics and optical applications behind this emerging technology. The major topics include:
1) Introduction of history development from MEMS to NEMS (6 hours)
2) Fabrication technologies of the nano-etch technology (15 hours)
3) Governing physics in the nano world including actuation mechanism and mechanical structures (15 hours)
4) Short introduction of optics in free space and waveguide (6 hours)
5) Optical NEMS devices and case studies (6 hours)
Project presentation by students (optionally dependent upon students’ previous experiences)
