After successful completion of the course, students are able to mathematically simulate photonic processes and to design photonic components (chirped dielectric mirrors,  Lasers, beams, waveguide components (filters, couplers etc), nonlinear effects, 1d, 2d and 3d semiconductors, S-matrix (Mach Zehnder- and Sagnac interferometer), Jones-polarization formalism)

Design and simulation of chirped dielectric mirrors,  Lasers, beams, waveguide components (filters, couplers etc), nonlinear effects, 1d, 2d and 3d semiconductors, S-matrix (Mach Zehnder- and Sagnac interferometer), Jones-polarization formalism

Introduction into specific photonic problem by the teacher,  presentation and discussion of results by students.

Required is more than 50% of problems solved plus 1 or more (positive) presentation.

S1: >85%, U2: >75%, B3: >65%,  U4: >50% solved
