Description
Introduction to Modern Optics by Grant R. Fowles provides a comprehensive undergraduate-level course in modern optics for students of physics, technology, and engineering. The book explores classical physical optics before delving into the quantum nature of light, covering topics such as wave propagation, interference, diffraction, and holography. The text assumes an intermediate knowledge of electricity and magnetism, as well as some advanced mathematics beyond calculus. To support classroom use, a list of problems is included at the end of each chapter, with selected answers provided at the end of the book. This textbook offers a thorough introduction to modern optics, making it an ideal resource for students seeking a solid foundation in this field. Suitable for those with prior knowledge of electricity and magnetism, as well as advanced mathematics, Introduction to Modern Optics provides a detailed exploration of the principles underlying optical phenomena.
