Discusses wave-matter interactions, focusing on diffraction and diffusion phenomena, including principles of reflection, refraction, and the significance of X-ray interactions.
Explores the radiative properties of small spheres, including Rayleigh scattering and absorption efficiencies, with a focus on Mie theory and particle characteristics.
Introduces fundamental optics concepts, covering refraction, reflection, interference, polarization, and more, exploring the behavior of light in different media.
Explores dispersion in anisotropic media, covering k surface, uniaxial crystals, double refraction, beam walk-off, and applications of birefringent crystals.
