Section Title:
Fourier Optics
Section Info:
This course aims to introduce the student to the power of using the Fourier transform in understanding Optics. The goal of this 300-level course is to stimulate interest in Optics early in the student's curriculum and, thus, bridge ECE 210 with ECE 329 and higher level courses. The course will begin with a brief review of the superposition principle and linear systems. Then the Fourier transform and its properties will be discussed separately in 1D, 2D, and 3D. The second part of the course will be dedicated to applying these properties to understanding behavior of optical fields. We will discuss separately field propagation in the spatial and temporal domain, emphasizing the similarity of the mathematical description and the importance of spectral phase in both cases.
