Course Overview
The online programme on the Physics of linear and nonlinear optical waveguides by Swayam has been purposefully structured to provide the registered students with the theoretical basis and applications for the field of optical waveguides. In the certification online session, the students will be learning about the principles of light-matter reactions.
The process and mechanisms of light-matter in linear, as well as non-linear reactions, will also be covered in the Physics of linear and nonlinear optical waveguides training. In the Physics of linear and nonlinear optical waveguides certification syllabus, the topics that will be covered are- Maxwell’s equation, Total Internal reflection, Concept of core and cladding, Linear and nonlinear optical waveguides & brief history, Plane-wave, Wave equation, Snell’s Law and other topics that are related to optical waveguides. The course will thus be helping the registered students to develop industrial-level skills and also develop academic-level knowledge.
