UE Mathematics for photonics

Unité d'enseignement (UE) de 2 crédits

^En UE enseignée en Anglais

Contenu

The purpose of this series of tutorials is to remind the common background knowledge that is required in all the lectures of the Master.

Topics Covered:

Students will develop proficiency in various mathematical techniques essential for optics and photonics applications, such as:

Analyzing intensity patterns resulting from interference phenomena
Conducting basic electromagnetic analyses
Computing states of polarization arising from polarizing elements
Understanding mathematical underpinnings of Maxwell's equations
Grasping the significance of Fourier analysis, particularly its impact on domain transformations
Solving fundamental problems related to geometric optics
