The goal 1) Recognizing physical processes which are consequence of light - matter interaction and explanation of possibilities for their application. 2) Understanding how work basic optoelectronic devices. 3) Demonstration of basic optoelectronic processes via experiment and teaching and training students how to correctly use optoelectronic components and tools.
The outcome It is expected that every student: 1) learns about important role and application of optoelectronics in future development of society, 2) gains knowledge about basic optical processes and optoelectronic devices and 3) overcome all difficulties when practically uses basic optoelectronics devices and tools and should be ready to use them alone.
