Summary
A unique appraoch was taken with this book to present light and optics and their applications. It covers the basic theoretical and industrial applications of light and optics, suitable for students, professionals and professors. Each chapter is presented in two parts: the theoretical and practical. In this way students will learn and gain practical hand-on experience in the light and optics subjects, which will allow them to apply the learned theeoretical concepts in simple and advanced experiments. Chapters 1to 7 cover light, light and shadow, thermal radiation, light production, light intensity, light and color, and the laws of light. Chapters 8 through 16 cover plane mirrors, spherical mirrors, lenses, prisms, beamsplitters, light passing through optical components, optical instruments for viewing applications, polarization of light, and optical materials. Chapter 17 covers laboratory safety.
