Optoelectronics Laboratory is a laboratory which allows to known the issues of modern optics: light propagation in linear and nonlinear centers and basic aspects of the work of optoelectronic devices such as. various types of lasers, fiber optics, LEDs, photodiodes, optoelectronic meters etc.
The task of the student is to make a certain number of laboratory exercises involving issues related to optics.
List of tasks:
1. Photometry - Spectroscopic measurements
2. The pulsed dye laser and nitrogen laser
3. Optoelectronic devices
4. External modulation of light
5. Semiconductor laser
6. Second harmonic generation
7. Determination of the ABCD matrix elements of optical systems.
8. Study of the Gaussian beam. Gaussian beam of higher order.
Transformation of the Gaussian beam by a lens
9. Holography.
10. Examination of fiber link
11. Fiber active
Detailed descriptions and requirements for above the tasks are placed on the website.
