Class material from Physics 208 "Electrooptics" at San Jose State for Spring 2009. This podcast will mostly contain recorded lectures in m4a format.

  • 1 hour 5 minutes
    Photonic Circuits
    We look at how the various pieces of optics we have studied throughout the course are integrated in to devices.

  • 1 hour 17 minutes
    Ultrafast optics
    We look at generation, propagation and detection of ultrafast laser pulses
    5 May 2009, 3:41 am
  • 1 hour 18 minutes
    4 wave mixing
    We look at the third order nonlinear effect and uses for Kerr lenses.
    30 April 2009, 3:34 am
  • 1 hour 13 minutes
    Nonlinear Wave Equation
    We use coupled mode analysis to investigate the field amplitudes in three wave mixing, and look at the effect of phase mismatch on the conversion efficiency of nonlinear processes.

  • 1 hour 9 minutes
    Phase Matching of SHG
    We look at the phase matching condition for Second Harmonic Generation and also do a tuning curve example for an OPO

  • 1 hour 13 minutes
    Nonlinear optics 1
    We introduce non-linear optics and discuss various forms of 3 wave mixing including frequency converters, optical parametric amplifiers (OPAs), optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) and second harmonic generation (SHG)

  • 1 hour 14 minutes
    2D Waveguides
    We generalize the expressions for 1D waveguide to 2 dimensions and focus on the calculation of power coupled into a waveguide from a Gaussian beam.

  • 1 hour 12 minutes
    1D waveguides
    We look at both the ray picture and field picture of modes in a 1D waveguide.

  • 1 hour 5 minutes
    Propagation in periodic media
    We look at Bloch Wave solutions to propagation in a periodic material using Fourier analysis of the material permittivity.
