Outline and Purpose of the Course The objective of the course is to introduce light control technologies. Staring with explaining the wave equation and basic properties of light, I will expand the lectures up-to cutting-edge light control technologies based on nanostructures.
Course Goals ・ Understand the basic properties of light.
・ Understand the cutting-edge light control technologies based on nanostructures.

3. Reflection, transmittance, total internal reflection (2 weeks)
4. Interference, diffraction, and its control (2 weeks)
5. Light emission, absorption, and its control (2 weeks)
6. Cutting-edge light control technologies based on nanostructures (4 weeks)
7. Feedback (1 week)
Evaluation Methods and Policy Evaluation will be based on participation (10%), homework (40%), and final examination (open book) (50%).
