TIMEPERIOD: Q III LANGUAGE:Swedish EXAMINER Lars Benckert Univ lekt PREREQUISITES MTF059 Optics COURSE AIM The course will give the student a thorough knowledge of the foundation of physical optics and applications of techniques based on optics in modern engineering. CONTENTS The course comprises two parts. The first is based on the following chapters in Gåsvik "Optical metrology": 1. Basics. 3. Interference. 4. Diffraction. 6. Holography. 7. Moiré-techniques. 8. Speckle methods. 9. Photoelasticity and polarized light. Demonstrations given are, Diffraction, Optical filtering, Schlieren, Shadowgraph, TV-holography, Sheaography. Depending on the number of participants, laboratory and/or project work within the areas mentioned above is included. The second part is of a more fundamental nature and includes Fresnel-KirchoffÕs theory for the propagation of scalar waves. This theory forms the basis for the treatment of Fresnel- and Fraunhofer diffraction, the propagation of laser beams, Fourier optics and coherence. Polarisation and birefringence is treated with matrix methods. Laboratory work on diffraction and Fourier optics is included. TEACHING Lectures, demonstrations, project work and laboratory work.
