In this course, we present the fundamentals of electromagnetic waves and the available modeling tools in COMSOL Multiphysics.
The course provides a comprehensive description of the physical interfaces and their corresponding electromagnetic wave simulation studies, together with the theoretical background behind them.
Students will review phenomena such as scattering, absorption, beams, secondary harmonic generation and autofocusing.
The course also studies systems based on electromagnetic wave propagation or interaction, including waveguides, couplers, optical fibers, plasmonic systems, photonic crystals, laser cavities, diffraction gratings and metamaterials.
Topics covered include electromagnetic wave interfaces and studies, far-field analysis, reduced models, beams, dispersion, absorption, nonlinear optics phenomena, optical fibers, waveguides, couplers, photonic crystals, diffraction gratings, metamaterials and RF applications.
