Goodman, 3rd edition. 2-“Optics”, Miles V. Klein and Thomas E. Furtak, 2nd edition. 3-“Optics”, Eugene Hecht, 3rd edition 4-“Principles of Optics”, Max Born and Emil Wolf, 6th edition Topics: 1- Diffraction Theory 2-Fourier Optics 3-Holography 4-Coherence 5-Polarization 6-Introduction to Nonlinear Optics 7-Optical Modulation 8-Aberation Theory 9-Multilayer Films 10-Fresnel Equations Home work There will be one homework due per week. Each assignment consists of 4-8 problems/questions (depending on the level of difficulty). The problems will be chosen mainly from Pedrotti but other sources will be considered for certain topics. Only two problems will be randomly graded and the rest will be checked to ensure that reasonable attempts have been made for all problems. Each homework has 30 points (10 points for each corrected problem and 10 points for the rest). There will be 12 homework sets. At the end the homework with lowest grade will be dropped. So homework assignments will have 330 points total (11×30)
