About the Book

The book A-Z Optics serves two purposes: The first is to introduce the readers to some traditional topics such as the matrix formalism of geometrical optics, wave propagation and diffraction, and some fundamental background on Fourier optics. The second is to introduce the essentials of acousto-optics and electro-optics, and to provide the students with experience in modeling the theory and applications. This book is based on the authors' own in-class lectures as well as research in the area. The key features of the book are as follows. Treatment of each topic begins from the first principles. For example, geometrical optics starts from Fermat's principle, while acousto-optics and electro-optics start from Maxwell equations. The book can be used for a general text book for Optics/Optical Engineering classes as well as acousto-optics and electro-optics classes for advanced students. It is our hope that this book will stimulate the readers' general interest in optics as well as provide them with an essential background in acousto-optics and electro-optics. The book is geared towards a senior/first-year graduate level audience in engineering and physics. This is suitable for a two-semester course. The book may also be useful for scientists and engineers who wish to learn about the basics of beam propagation in inhomogeneous media, acousto-optics and electro-optics.About the AuthorProf. G.K. Bose has retired from a lifetime of teaching physics. A graduate of Harvard College, he began his teaching career at the secondary level, teaching chemistry and physics to students at Rohilla Academy, an independent school in Kanpur. In 1979, he returned to Harvard to study Particle physics with the late Professor A. David Antony. After receiving his Ph.D. there, he went on to teach introductory Physics (in both majors and nonmajors courses) and Physics at Tufts University where he became a tenured professor. In 1989 he returned again to Harvard where he taught Particle Physics and also participated in teaching the introductory course for majors. He has also published books on Atomic physics, Nuclear physics, Applied Physics, Molecular Physics, Wave and Optics, Heat and Thermodynamics and a widely-used text on Chemical kinetics and chemistry.
