TN1302 “Mechanica Golven Optica” (Aurèle Adam) Introduction to Mechanics, Waves and Optics for 1st year. First course of physics.
TN2421 “Optics” (Aurèle Adam, Paul Urbach) Optics course for 3rd year, including geometrical optics, wave optics, polarization, coherence, diffraction and lasers, based on our own Optics book available via TU Open.
TN2305 “Quantum Mechanics for the Minor” (Florian Bociort) Introduction to quantum mechanics including general concepts and a basic mathematical formalism. We will work on the solutions of the Schroedinger equation in one dimensional potentials such as the harmonic oscillator, square wells, free particle. There will be short presentations of the use of quantum mechanics in modern technology.
TN2345 “Inleiding Golven” (Florian Bociort) Everything about wave propagation, both optical and acoustic. Principles of Huygens and Fermat. Propagation of light. Reflection/transmission of EM waves. Total internal reflection.
TN1003 “Design Engineering voor Fysici” (Aurèle Adam) Design Engineering for Physicists is a subject in which learning to design and make (or have made) measurement setups and equipment is central. As a physicist, you must be able to translate your theoretical knowledge of physical processes and phenomena into reality – and back again. We have designed several experiment for this course.
Research Practicum “Differential Equation” (Aurèle Adam) Derive the light propagation in various cases (mirage, fiber) via the Fermat principal and the Euler-Lagrange equations.
Research Practicum “Fourier Filtering” (Aurèle Adam) Put in practice the use of Lens as a Fourier device and apply is for image filtering. Both experimental and simulation.
