Optics — Classical Learning Path

Geometrical Optics Bench

Ray tracing with ABCD matrices and exact Snell refraction: lenses, mirrors, stops, pupils, telescopes, microscopes and aberrations. Start here.

Electromagnetic Waves and Energy Flow

Plane-wave E and H fields, wave impedance and the Poynting vector. Prerequisite: vectors, complex numbers.

Fresnel Interface Coefficients

Reflection and refraction at an interface: complex r and t, Brewster angle, total internal reflection and evanescent waves. After: EM waves.

Polarization and Jones/Mueller Calculus

Polarization states, an ordered bench of polarizers and wave plates, Stokes parameters and the Poincaré sphere. After: Fresnel.

Interference and Beating

Superposition of two waves, coherence, polarization overlap, visibility and temporal beats. After: EM waves.

Standing Waves

Counter-propagating waves, reflection phase, standing-wave ratio and two-mirror resonator modes. After: interference, Fresnel.

Interferometers and Coherence

Michelson and Mach–Zehnder interferometers, finite source bandwidth, coherence length and fringe visibility. After: interference.

Thin Films and Multilayer Coatings

Anti-reflection coatings, Bragg mirrors and absorbing films with transfer matrices. After: Fresnel, interference.

Double-Slit Experiment

Fraunhofer two-slit interference with finite slit width, partial coherence and photon build-up. After: interference.

Single-Slit and Circular Diffraction

Far-field slit and Airy patterns on a calibrated detector, Fresnel number and enclosed power. After: double slit.

Near- and Far-Field Aperture Propagation

Numerical angular-spectrum and Fresnel propagation of arbitrary apertures: zone plates, Poisson spot and sampling limits. After: diffraction.

Diffraction Gratings and Spectroscopy

N-slit gratings, orders, resolving power and a spectrometer with slit and pixel limits. After: diffraction.

Fourier Optics, Imaging and Resolution

4f systems, spatial filtering, PSF, MTF, coherent vs incoherent imaging and Zernike aberrations. After: geometrical optics, aperture propagation.
