Includes bibliographical references and index. Light propagation -- Reflections and refractions at optical surfaces -- Image formation -- Mirrors and prisms -- Curved optical surfaces -- Thin lenses -- Thick lenses -- Mirrors -- Optical apertures -- Paraxial ray tracing -- Aberrations in optical systems -- Real ray tracing. Optics has recently evolved into one of the most flourishing fields in physics, with photonics finding increasing application in products such as optical thermometers, camera monitors and LED lighting, plus numerous military applications. |
