This course on photonic integrated circuits deals with principles, devices, and applications where light propagating in optical waveguides takes the central role. Various aspects that will be dealt are optical waveguide theory; passive, dynamic and functional devices, optical sensors; micro-opto-electro-mechanical systems; and recent developments.
