Light is in our everyday lives and used in many different fields of research, which is why we will explore several of its fundamental principles in hands-on experiments in this P&S. 

The main goal is to learn the basics of working with optics and how to assemble optical systems. You will learn the practical side to the many optics lectures that are offered at D-ITET. 
We will give a very brief introduction on laser safety, basic building blocks for optics and information on how to handle optical elements. The following classes will allow you to test basic properties of lenses and lasers yourself. After learning how to arrange a simple optical setup, the different student groups rotate through four different experiments where they get the chance to build and align different optical setups and perform various measurements.
