PREFACE
Two books covering the field of modern optics have been prepared in
this series “Methods of Experimental Physics”, separating the material into
two parts, one with the title “Geometrical and Instrumental Optics”, and
the other with the title “Physical Optics and Light Measurements”.
The purpose of these books is to help the scientist or engineer who is
not a specialist in optics to understand the main principles involved in
optical instrumentation and experimental optics.
Our main intent is to provide the reader with some of the interdisciplinary
understanding that is so essential in modern instrument design, development,
and manufacture. Coherent optical processing and holography are
also considered, since they play a very important role in contemporary
optical instrumentation. Radiometry, detectors, and charge coupled imaging
devices are also described in these volumes, because of their great practical
importance in modern optics. Basic and theoretical optics, like laser physics,
nonlinear optics and spectroscopy are not described, however, because they
are not normally considered relevant to optical instrumentation.
In this volume, “Physical Optics and Light Measurements”, Chapter One
describes the theory and applications of interference and interferometers.
Chapter Two studies diffraction, its basic theoretical fundamentals, and
some practical applications. Polarized light and its uses are considered in
Chapter Three. Holography and holographic methods are studied in detail
in Chapter Four. The photometric and radiometric principles are covered
in Chapter Five. Finally, Chapter Six considers detectors.
There might be some overlapping of topics covered in different chapters,
but this is desirable, since the points of view of different authors, treating
different subjects, may be quite instructive and useful for a better understanding
of the material.
This book has been the result of the efforts of many people. Professor
H. W. Palmer started this project and spent many fruitful hours on it.
Unfortunately, he did not have the time to finish his editorial work due to
previous important commitments. I would like to express my great appreciation
of and thanks to Professor Palmer and all of the authors, without
whom this book could never have been finished. I also thank Dr. R. E.
Hopkins and many friends and colleagues for their help and encouragement.
Finally, I appreciate the great understanding of my family, mainly my wife
Isabel, for the many hours taken away from them during the preparation
of these books.
