Anotation:

The aim of the course is to introduce students with principles of optical systems. The course covers both theoretical background of optics and practical approaches for the design of optical systems. Students extend their knowledge from the ray optics through the matrix optics, subsequently and further by the description of optical systems using Gaussian beams, towards wave and quantum optics. Then students will learn the basic mechanisms and principles of fiber optics.

Course outlines:

1. The basic elements of optical communications systems, introduction to optics
2. Beam propagation in inhomogeneous medium, geometrical optics
3. Matrix optics, transfer matrices of optical elements
4. Basics of wave optics
5. Gaussian beams, transition through optical components
6. Fourier optics
7. Quantum Optics
8. The basic technology of optical waveguides
9. Fiber Optics
10. Propagation of the pulses in dispersive media
11. Nonlinear fiber optics
12. Solitons and noise in optical systems
13. Direct and coherent detection
14. Special optical fibers, optical sensors, sensor systems

Exercises outline:
