Random Light Beams: Theory and Applications contemplates the
potential in harnessing random light. This book discusses light
matter interactions, and concentrates on the various phenomena
associated with beam-like fields. It explores natural and man-made
light fields and gives an overview of recently introduced families
of random light beams. It outlines mathematical tools for analysis,
suggests schemes for realization, and discusses possible
applications.
The book introduces the essential concepts needed for a deeper
understanding of the subject, discusses various classes of
deterministic paraxial beams and examines random scalar beams. It
highlights electromagnetic random beams and matters relating to
generation, propagation in free space and various media, and
discusses transmission through optical systems. It includes
applications that benefit from the use of random beams, as well as
the interaction of beams with deterministic optical systems.
Includes detailed mathematical description of different model
sources and beams
Explores a wide range of man-made and natural media for beam
interaction
Contains more than 100 illustrations on beam behavior
Offers information that is based on the scientific results of
the last several years
Points to general methods for dealing with random beams, on the
basis of which the readers can do independent research
It gives examples of light propagation through the human eye,
laser resonators, and negative phase materials. It discusses in
detail propagation of random beams in random media, the scattering
of random beams from collections of scatterers and thin random
layers as well as the possible uses for these beams in imaging,
tomography, and smart illumination.
