Discussion Session:
Tuesdays 1:00-2:00 pm, 105 Dwinelle Hall
Prerequisite:
Physics 7C.
Text:
1) Optics, 4th edition, by Eugene Hecht, (Addison Wesley
Longman, 2002) or comparable optics text ( If you intend
to use a different reference please see the instructor or
G.S.I.)
2) A text covering contemporary optics and opto-electronic
applications and principles. There are several ranging
from introductory to advanced. A good introductory one
is:
a) Optics, An introduction for technicians and
technologists, by J. Warren Blaker and Peter Schafer,
Prentice Hall ISBN 0-13-227794-8 (freshman or early
sophomore level)
An advanced selection (senior level):
b)Optical Electronics in Modern Communications,
Amnon Yariv, Oxford Press, ISBN 0-19-510626-1 This has
far more than we could cover in one semester
Course Details:
Fundamental principles of optical systems. Geometrical optics and aberration theory. Stops and apertures, prisms, and mirrors. Diffraction and interference. Optical materials and coatings. Radiometry and photometry. Basic optical devices and the human eye. The design of optical systems. Lasers, fiber optics, and holography.
