Photonics PgDip

Optics and photonics are considered to be one of the most important key enabling technologies of the 21st century. The term “Photonics” stresses that the particle aspects of light are crucial in the generation, manipulation, transmission and detection of light and its applications. The course provides the opportunity to explore and master a large range of photonic technologies, enabling you to put devices in the context of an optical system and/or application. The course is based on the strong record of photonic technologies across research divisions in the Department of Physics in collaboration with:<br/><br/>Optics Division (Physics)<br/>Plasma Division (Physics)<br/>Nanoscience Division (Physics)<br/>Institute of Photonics<br/>Department of Electronic & Electrical Engineering<br/>You’ll put the knowledge gained in the taught components to use in a cutting-edge research project.
