This curriculum has been developed and refined for a decade and a half at the University of Arizona's College of Optical Sciences. \u003cstrong\u003ePolarized Light and Optical Systems\u003c\/strong\u003e provides a reference for the optical engineer and optical designer in issues related to building polarimeters, designing displays, and polarization critical optical systems. The central theme of \u003cstrong\u003ePolarized Light and Optical Systems\u003c\/strong\u003e is a unifying treatment of polarization elements as optical elements and optical elements as polarization elements. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eComprehensive presentation of Jones calculus and Mueller calculus with tables and derivations of the Jones and Mueller matrices for polarization elements and polarization effects\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eClassroom-appropriate presentations of polarization of birefringent materials, thin films, stress birefringence, crystal polarizers, liquid crystals, and gratings \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscussion of the many forms of polarimeters, their trade-offs, data reduction methods, and polarization artifacts\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eExposition of the \u003ci\u003epolarization ray tracing calculus\u003c\/i\u003e to integrate polarization with ray tracing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplanation of the sources of polarization aberrations in optical systems and the functional forms of these polarization aberrations\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eProblem sets to build students' problem-solving capabilities.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Russell Chipman,Wai Sze Tiffany Lam,Garam Young\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 149870056X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781498700566\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/09\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 1036\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.98lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.10h x 7.30w x 2.20d","brand":"Russell Chipman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088436769023,"sku":"9781498700566","price":265.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_649d7927-d142-4e15-913f-ed01e4cf8b8a.jpg?v=1769104827","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/polarized-light-and-optical-systems-russell-chipman-9781498700566","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
