Within this Field Guide, you will find formulae and descriptions of electromagnetic wave phenomena that are fundamental to the wave theory of light. Author Dan Smith has included tools central to describing polarization, interference, and diffraction. Emphasis is placed on scalar diffraction and imaging theory, which are essential in solving most practical optical engineering problemsSummary: Glossary of terms and acronyms -- Electromagnetic waves -- Polarization -- Interference -- Scalar theory of diffraction -- Imaging -- Gaussian beams -- Coherence theory -- Appendix: Special functions and Fourier transforms -- Equation summary -- BibliographyPPN: PPN: 1018190732Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-50-SPI | ZDB-50-SPI
