Abstract

The Electronics for Optics and Photonics courses prepare the student to understand the basics of DC and AC circuits and systems, and to apply these concepts to the area of Photonics. This first course focuses on DC Circuits and also introduces the student to industry-standard tools such as Multisim and LabVIEW, which he is likely to encounter in a research or industrial environment. At the end of the first course, the student will understand and will have the skills to safely operate electronic equipment (DC Circuits).
