OPTICS, 5TH EDITION

Optics, fifth edition is distinguished by three core imperatives: up-to-date content in line with the ever-evolving technological advances in the Optics field; a modern approach to discourse including studies on Photons, phases, and theory; and improvements and revisions to the previous edition pedagogy including over one hundred new worked examples. Sustaining market leadership for over twenty years, this edition continues to demonstrate range and balance in subject matter. The text is grounded in traditional methodology, while providing an early introduction to the powerful perspective of the Fourier theory, which is crucial to present-day analysis. Electron and neutron Diffraction patterns are pictured alongside the customary Photon images, and every piece of art has been scrutinized for accuracy and altered where appropriate to improve clarity.
features: – updated! New illustrations, photos, and revised art are included throughout the text, enhancing the already outstanding visual pedagogy of the book.
– updated! Promoting the balance of theory and Instrumentation, this comprehensive text provides students with a classical background to ensure success in their field.
