EECE 6336 Photonic and Magnetic Materials

Throughout this course, students will learn the fundamentals of electron theory, crystal structure, electrical conduction, superconductors, and dielectric properties of materials. Students will be provided brief information on semiconductors, Photonic properties of materials, dielectric properties, ferroelectrics & piezoelectrics, complex dielectric constant, transmittance, reflectivity & conductivity, Classical & quantum approach to optical properties. This course also aims to consider thoughtful understanding of applications of the photonic materials, magnetic phenomena and their classical interpretation: diamagnetism, paramagnetism, ferromagnetism, antiferromagnetism, ferrimagnetism, theories of magnetism of several magnetic materials, Soft & hard magnetic materials, and permanent magnets, application of magnetic materials.
