This guide helps the optical radiation measurement community switch from traditional source-based methods to higher-accuracy, detector-based applications. It covers user-friendly radiometric practices, setup design, and extensions into the ultraviolet and infrared ranges.
Existing methods for studying the piezooptic properties of crystals are imperfect and lead to significant errors. This book introduces 2D-polarimetric and interferometric methods that increase experimental accuracy and ensure reliable results for photoelastic properties.
This book presents over 40 experiments in optics for students and engineers. Covering components like lenses, mirrors, and gratings, each experiment is clearly described with concise, easy-to-understand theory to explain the principles underlying them.
