This is an introductory course about the fundamentals of photonics and their impacts on our daily life. Photonics contributes to the fundamental platform for nanotechnology, green energy, home entertainment, data storage, sensing, imaging, biomedical healthcare, and modern optical communications. The course aims to introduce to the prospective students the basic knowledge and essence of photonic technologies, and how these technologies are applied to and influence our daily life. This course is intended for students with various engineering backgrounds (e.g. electrical, electronic, chemical, biological, mechanical, civil, aerospace, etc) to learn the impact of photonics in fields ranging from nanotechnology to communications in a fundamental level rather than a mathematical-based formulated course. A list of relevant formulae will be provided in the final examination paper.
