Lecture

Polarized Light: Reflection and Lenses

Description

This lecture covers circular polarized electric waves, reflection of polarized light, reflection coefficients for an air-to-glass interface, Brewster's angle, polarizing sunglasses, and thin lenses. It also discusses making images with thin and negative lenses, focal length calculations, and human vision optics.
