ECEN 5696 – FOURIER OPTICS
Fall Semester 2002, University of Colorado at Boulder
Prof. Rafael Piestun
Office hours: Tu. & Wed. 2:00-3:00PM
This course deals with the application of harmonic analysis in optics. We will study the propagation and diffraction of light from a systems perspective. The goal is to apply this knowledge in the design of optical systems.
Topics
- Two-dimensional systems
- Diffraction of light
- Wave optics analysis of optical systems
- Optical information processing
- Coherent and incoherent imaging systems
- Holography
- Wavefront modulation devices
Prerequisites:
ECEN 3300, Linear System Theory
ECEN 3400, Electromagnetic Fields and Waves
