Objectives: Optics and photonics are the sciences of light, visible or invisible, from X-rays to far infrared, including the production and transmission of light, the formation and processing of images.
At the meeting of optics, electronics and physics, the Photonics and Optronics Systems training offered by Polytech Paris-Saclay allows you to acquire dual skills in optics and electronics necessary to master the modern techniques implemented in emerging areas of photonics.
Photonics is more precisely associated with the study of components allowing the generation, transmission, processing (modulation, amplification) or conversion of optical signals. The components studied in the context of photonics include lasers, light-emitting diodes, optical fibers, etc.
Optronics is a technique for implementing equipment or systems using both optics and electronics. It generally combines an optical sensor, an image processing system, a display or storage system.
The applications of photonics are found in many fields as light (the photon) constitutes an extremely precise probe or an information medium with exceptional properties: energy, the environment, biomedical, transport, aeronautics, defense, telecommunications…
More concretely, these sciences are very present in our daily lives: at the supermarket checkout which uses a laser to identify items, at the airport where a laser gyro ensures the guidance of planes, in the fields of computing, audio and video with the optical disc…
