Online Short Term Course on Photonics and Photovoltaics: Devices, Circuits, and Metrology December 11-24, 2020 Course Coordinators: Ramesh Kumar Sonkar and
Arun Tej Mallajosyula Contact
Details: Department of
Electronics and Electrical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, Guwahati, Assam 781 039 Phone: 0361-2582535 (O) Fax: 0361-2582542 Email: sonkar@iitg.ac.in http://iitg.ac.in/sonkar/PRG%20IITG%20-Events-.htm Objective The scope of the proposed short-term course
includes basic and general concepts in optoelectronics, photonics,
photovoltaics, photonic integrated circuits, plasmonics,
and optical measurement techniques. Basics of semiconductor device physics,
which are essential for understanding the subsequent lectures, will be
reviewed in the initial lectures. Separate lectures will be dedicated to each
optical component to cover from basic design to introducing advanced concepts
wherever necessary. The operation of various passive and active photonic
devices will be discussed including their design techniques and performance
analysis. The basics of solar energy and the operation of solar cells will be
discussed. Efficiency determining parameters and loss mechanisms will be
discussed in detail. Various types of solar cells from first generation to the
fourth generation will be introduced along with the recent and future trends.
These include both crystalline as well as thin film devices, with focus
towards the more recent technologies such as nanostructured solar cells. An
overview of fabless photonics integrated circuits design principles and tools
will be given. The lectures would include design of passive photonic
integrated circuits such as waveguides, bends, power combiners/splitters,
directional couplers, and optical networks. The lectures will also discuss
electro-optic modulator and photodetector, which are the two main active
devices required for a photonics transceivers.
Optical measurement techniques have witnessed an increasing trend in the
range of applications with the advents of laser and recording devices such as
CCD cameras. Optical techniques offers specific
advantages in comparison to other measurement techniques, for example,
non-contact, full-field, non-destructive, high sensitivity and low cost.
Representative optical measurement techniques such as digital speckle
interferometry, digital holography, digital Image correlation, etc. will be
discussed. Fundamentals of nanophotonics and
applications of plasmonics including methods of
tuning surface plasmon resonance, methods for theoretical modelling and
simulation of nanophotonic devices involving nanoparticle arrays,
metamaterials and metasurfaces, cloaking and
invisibility with metamaterials, promises of nanophotonics
with new alternative materials and with deep learning will also be covered.
The laboratory sessions will cover simulation of various optoelectronic
devices covered in the theory classes. This short-term course on Photonics and
Photovoltaics: Devices, Circuits, and Metrology will be held in an online
mode over MS Team. Eligibility The course
is open to the faculty members/researchers of AICTE approved engineering
colleges, practicing engineers from industries and government
organizations/departments. No course fee would be charged for participants
sponsored by AICTE approved institutions. Participants
(teachers or non-teachers) from other government and private organizations
are eligible provided they pay a course fee of ₹2,500/-
for government organizations and ₹5,000/-
for private organizations. The payment is to be made
by Netbanking / UPI if selected. Details will be
mailed to the selected participants. Online form can be submitted
through the link. All the registered participants
will get E-certificate after successful completion of the course. Important Dates Last date for the receipt of duly sponsored

IIT Guwahati The Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, the sixth
member of the IIT fraternity, was established in 1994 and academic programs commenced
in 1995. At present the Institute has eleven departments covering the major
engineering and science disciplines. With one of the most beautiful campuses
in the continent, the infrastructure for teaching and carrying out advanced
research is world class, being equipped with state-of-the-art engineering and
scientific instruments. The IIT Guwahati campus stands on a sprawling 285
hectares of land on the north bank of the river Brahmaputra. The campus is about 25 km from the heart of the city. With
the majestic Brahmaputra on one side, and hills and vast open spaces on the
other side, the campus provides an ideal setting for learning. The city of
Guwahati is the gateway to North East India and connected with many major
cities in the country by rail and air. Buses (from Pan Bazar overbridge),
auto-rickshaws and taxi are available from Guwahati City to the IIT Guwahati
Campus. |
