Date: Thursdays during June 2022

Time:  10:10 AM - 11:10 AM

Location:  at PAIS, Rm. 2540

Abstract:

This Lecture will follow the material in “Nonlinear Fiber Optics, 6th Ed. By Govind Agrawal”. The goal is to derive the nonlinear Schrodinger equation, parametric processes (four-wave mixing) and spontaneous and stimulated Raman process, etc. If there is enough interest, we may continue to optical fiber solitons and quantization in soliton background.

The required background is a working knowledge of Maxwell's Equations and basic differential equations.
The lecture series is free and open to all.
