一、課程說明
This course is to introduce the fundamentals of nonlinear optics including optical waves in anisotropic media, electro-optics, acousto-optics, second-order optical nonlinearity, and third-order optical nonlinearity. Both theory and experiment will be emphasized. In the past few years, this course is known to be quite heavy and yet useful for most students working on photonics related research.
