At the end of this course, students will have the necessary background to understand, compare and evaluate various laser types and their suitability for scientific tasks in spectroscopy at a scientific level.
Furthermore, students will obtain the competence to independently derive basic quantities relevant in laser design by application of appropriate mathematical models both on paper and in simple computer simulations.
In addition, students passing this course will improve in their scientific presentation and reading skills: They will be able to independently research a scientific topic in the scope of this course and give a short talk supported by media (presentation slides, blackboard) using adequate scientific vocabulary. This includes the ability to generate meaningful and reasonable visualizations (plots and sketches) and giving adequate and constructive feedback.Contents
Topics include: wave propagation, ray optics, wave optics, Gaussian optics, Fourier optics, nonlinear optics, pulse propagation, dispersion, nonlinear pulse propagation, pulse broadening, pulse compression, interference, principles of lasers, waveguides, Q-switching, mode-locking, pulse measurements, optical frequency combs, spectroscopy experiments and applications for ultrafast pulsed lasers.Methods
Methods of the course include interactive lectures with regular student participation, exercise classes employing various learning methods (group work, individual homework assignments, mathematical examples, basic programming examples), as well as short student presentations on a scientific publication related to the topics of the course.
