The course includes two goals :Semiconductor Physics for 1) electronic devices and 2) for interaction of photons with semiconductor materials. It introduces concepts and characteristics of principles, theories, operations for both semiconductor & laser cavity with optic fiber as transmission medium. Its objective is for engineering students to understand and to apply the knowledge of quantum physics to the semiconductor applications.
