OS6003-A Fourier Optics
Last Revised: 2023-12-21
Course Objectives
"Fourier Optics is a fundamental course dealing with the propagation of
optical wave either in the free space or in the optical system. This
course is based on the result from the scalar diffraction theory to
handle the interference and diffraction problems occured with the
optical wave. In order to study more advanced courses, such as optical
information processing or holographic optics, this course is the
prerequisite course."
