An optics and photonics textbook
Offering a comprehensive treatment of the subject as well as key applications, and employing minimal math, LIGHT: Introduction to Optics and Photonics was written with readers in mind. This textbook is for beginning students of optics and photonics in high school, community college, and university STEM courses as well as for teachers and non-optics industry professionals looking for a basic understanding of the subject.
Photonics Media Press presents the recently updated second edition of this entry-level textbook, written by educators and industry experts. Key topics include light, diffraction, refraction, polarization, optics, photonics, lasers and laser applications, laser safety, and fiber optics.
Arranged in a logical sequence for a one- or two-semester course, the text begins with an overview of laser safety, followed by chapters on the physics of light production, geometric and wave optics, and laser physics. The remaining chapters cover laser types and applications, fiber optics, imaging, holography, the manufacture of precision optics, and biophotonics. Every topic is clearly illustrated with photographs and drawings. End-of-chapter problems are included, and a solutions manual is available to educators from the authors.
Graphic slides for courses
All of the graphic illustrations in the book are available as a separate Microsoft PowerPoint document (pptx) — over 350 slides that can be used in course presentations and handouts. Choose an option that includes the Graphic Slides and you will receive a link in your receipt and by email to download the file.
Note that the individual illustrations are picture files on the slides and cannot be edited, but the slides can be edited to add additional text, reorganized, placed in a new document or presentation, etc., to suit your course needs
