科研内容（参考课题之一）

Research Subject:  Physical Optics

This summer research program is a summary of several topics in optics. In this program, students will be introduced to the current research topics, including nonlinear optics, quantum optics, and computational optics. We will build an interferometer and get to experience cool experimental aspect in optics. A few mini-projects will be given to help understanding the material. Upon completion of this program, students should have comprehensive knowledge about the field of optics.
