Opis

Introduced in this book are the classical concepts of geometrical and physical optics with rigorous connections to fundamental theories of light-fermat's principle, Huygen's principle and Maxwell's equations. It establishes the conventional groundwork for optical understanding, including image formation, optical instruments, interference, diffraction and polarization. The book is geared to advanced undergraduate and graduate students of physics as well as the professional scientist.
