Laser Photonics and Optoelectronics
Program description
The program’s graduates are involved in the development of the latest laser systems, as well as the creation of new materials for the field of optoelectronics. The unique properties of laser radiation which allow for concentrating its energy in space, time and the spectral range make it indispensable in many fields: fr om industry to medicine and information technologies. Laser and optoelectronic technologies are indispensable for infocommunication systems, wh ere they are used for recording, storing, transmitting and processing data. With the development of information technologies, the demand for different types of lasers continues to grow significantly. Such technologies are used both for technological and crude tasks such as cutting thick sheets of steel in the manufacturing of aircraft or cars, and for high-precision medical purposes, for example, for correcting human vision or for treating tumors.
