Purpose and objective Goals
|
Students study the foundation of electronic properties with a focus on the behavior of electrons and the basic knowledge required to understand the electronic properties of solids and acquired from the viewpoints of electrons, atoms, molecules and crystals. The electron-photon interaction process and the operating principle of laser devices, which are the keys for studying photonics, are learned. Students also study foundational properties of light waves based on Maxwell’s equations. Additionally, main photonic devices for optical communication systems are learned. [Educational Objectives] (C) Acquire technical knowledge required for engineers in the electrical, electronics and information engineering field (C-1) Acquire basic technical knowledge required for engineers in all three fields: electric energy system and control engineering, electronic devices and photonics engineering, and information, telecommunication and control systems. [Goals] - Understand the basic properties of electronic devices and materials - Understand the mechanism of electrical conduction and the band structure - Understand the basic properteis of metals, semicondoctors, dielectric materials, magnetic materials, and superconductors - Understand the characteristics of semiconductor devices, recording materials, sensors - Understand the operating principle of lasers - Understand the foundational properties of light waves including polarization, refraction, and reflection - Understand the operating principle of devices for optical communication systems

Contents and method
|
[The first half] First, electric devices and materials are outlined with a focus on the electric conduction and the band theory. Next, lectures are given on metals, semiconductors, dielectric materials, magnetic materials, and superconductors, and then roles of these materials in semiconductor devices, recording materials, and sensors are outlined. By working through the exercise problems in the text book and the slides, understanding is further deepened. [The latter half] First, the foundation of electron-photon interactions, the operating principle of lasers, and the properties of laser beams are outlined. Next, students study properties of light waves based on Maxwell’s equations. Photodetectors, optical fibers, optical amplifiers, and optical modulators, which are primary devices for optical communication system, are also outlined. Teaching materials with the exercise problems are provided in the class.

Evaluation method and Assessment points
|
In the first half, the grade is determined by the results of reports (15 points), quizzes in the classes (10 points), and first examination (25 points). In the latter half, the grade is determined by the result of latter examination (50 points). The final grade is determined by the total points of the first and latter half. The information in this course is the foundation of electronic devices and photonics engineering but covers a wide range. It is impossible to understand them and retain an understanding simply by attending lectures. Therefore, preparations for and reviews of the classes are essential.
|
Prerequisite / other notes
|
The study of this course is developed and deepened in “Electric and Electronic Materials 1,” “Electric and Electronic Materials 2,” “Photonics 1,” “Photonics 2,” and “Optical Properties of Materials.”
