Learning outcomes
To carry out a phenomenological and theoretical description of the studied physical or astronomical phenomena, objects and processes. To choose effective mathematical methods and information technologies and apply them to carry out research or innovations in the field of physics or astronomy To apply theories, principles and methods of physics or astronomy to solve complex interdisciplinary scientific and applied problems To plan scientific research taking into account goals and limitations, to choose effective research methods, to draw reasonable conclusions based on the results of the research. To know and understand the physical foundations of the functioning of optical devices and systems.
Form of study
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Know the courses "Optics", "Crystal Optics" and "Atomic Physics" and understand the essence of physical processes that determine the optical properties of crystalline and amorphous media, caused by the influence of electric, magnetic and acoustic fields. 2. Be able to apply the wave normal equation and possess the methods of calculating the optical characteristics of anisotropic media.
Course content
The course "Electromagnetic Acousto-Optics" considers both classical and quantum theories of magneto-optical, electro-optical and acousto-optical phenomena. The aim of studying the discipline is to enable students to master the physical foundations of magneto-optical, electro-optical and acousto-optical phenomena, the basic equations describing these phenomena, and practical applications of these phenomena. The educational objective of the course is to effectively use the acquired knowledge in scientific research and in optical instrument making. The learning outcomes are the ability to apply magneto-optical, electro-optical and acousto-optical phenomena to solve practical scientific and industrial problems.
