A Valuable Reference for Understanding Basic Optical Principals
Need a crash course in optics? If you are a non-specialist with
little or no knowledge of optical components, systems, or hardware,
who suddenly finds it necessary to work with optics in your given
field, then Optics Essentials: An Interdisciplinary Guide is the
book for you. Aimed at engineers and other interdisciplinary
professionals tackling optics-related challenges, this text
provides a basic overview of optical principles, concepts, and
applications as well as worked examples throughout. It enables
readers to gain a basic understanding of optics and sense of
optical phenomena, without having to commit to extended periods of
study. Contains MATLAB (R) Simulations and Suggested ExperimentsThe
book provides MATLAB simulations to help the reader visualize
concepts, includes simple experiments using everyday materials that
are readily available to solidify optical principles, and provides
worked examples throughout. It contains a set of suggested
experiments in each chapter designed to help the reader understand
and visualize the basic principles. While this book assumes that
the reader has a basic background in mathematics, it does not
burden or overwhelm them with complex information or heavy
mathematical equations. In addition, while it also briefly
discusses advanced topics, readers are directed to the appropriate
texts for more detailed study. Comprised of 11 chapters, this
illuminating text: Describes light sources, such as lasers,
light-emitting diodes, and thermal sources Compares various light
sources, and photometric and radiometric parameters Discusses light
detection, including various detector types, such as photon
detectors and thermal detectors, and other topics re
