Spring 2019 Electromagnetics (EE204B)
Fall 2018 Electromagnetics (EE204A)
Spring 2018 Plasmonics and Metamaterials (EE857)

The field of plasmonics has been attracting wide interest because it has provided routes to localize and control light at nanoscales by utilizing metals as its major building block. This course aims to equip the students with a solid theoretical foundation in the principles of plasmonics and impart practical knowledge of important application areas including metamaterials.
