Physics 436-0 Mesoscopic and Nanometer Scale Physics
Selected topics related to quantum effects in mesoscopic and nanometer scale systems. For example: quantum interference in disordered conductors, transport in semiconductor quantum dots, quantum Hall effect, Coulomb blockade and single-electron charging effects, mesoscopic superconductors and the proximity effect, spin-polarized transport

Physics 441-0 Statistical Methods for Physicists and Astronomers
Data analysis in the modern age requires familiarity with many concepts and methods from statistics. This course provides an introduction to the basics as well as some of the most advanced techniques. The emphasis will be on practical problems from physics and astronomy, rather than on theory or on statistical methods from other fields. Prior knowledge of statistics is not required. This course is intended primarily for graduate students in Physics and Astronomy. Undergraduate students and students from other departments should contact the instructor.

 

Physics 426-0 Nonlinear Optics

Nonlinear optical susceptibilities, wave propagation and coupling in nonlinear media. Harmonic, sum, and difference frequency generation. Parametric amplification and oscillation, phase-conjugation via four-wave mixing, self-phase modulation and solitons. This course is the same as ELEC_ENG 406.

Physics 427-0 Quantum Optics

Review of quantum fields. Quantization of the electromagnetic field, photodetection theory. Direct, homodyne, and heterodyne detection. Squeezed and photon-number state generation, application to optical communication and interferometers. This course is the same as ELEC_ENG 407.
