Condition
The goal		Introducing students with techniques, software, laboratory equipment and experimental set-ups for modeling, design and characterization of passive photonic integrated devices.
The outcome		Project tasks will include utilizing software tools for modeling and design of passive integrated circuits, as well as lab characterization of devices fabricated according to the student's design. After completing these tasks, students should be qualified for work in companies for research and development of photonic integrated devices.
Contents
Contents of lectures		Introduction to passive integrated circuits: basic physics of waveguides, waveguide arc, MMI, MZI, ring resonators. Software for modeling of passive integrated devices. Introduction to fabrication and technology limitations. Software and basics of mask engineering. Experimental set-ups and laboratory equipment for characterization. Applications in photonic communications, biophotonics, sensors...
Contents of exercises		Project tasks include numerical calculation of parameters and modeling of basic building blocks, fabrication mask design, experimental characterization, post-processing of the results and their presentation. By working in the laboratory for optical communications they will familiarize with lab instrumentation and experimental set-ups.
