Introduces the fundamental concepts of optics, covering quantum optics, wavy optics, and electromagnetic optics, as well as the principles of reflection, refraction, and image formation.
Explores the radiative properties of small spheres, including Rayleigh scattering and absorption efficiencies, with a focus on Mie theory and particle characteristics.
Explores the electromagnetic spectrum, optical sensors, human retina, color synthesis, light polarization, photon-material interaction, and X-ray interactions.
