Aim: The purpose of this course is to give the student an understanding and practical knowledge of the way a variety of optical components work and their application, eg. lasers, lenses, polarization elements, birefringence components etc. Emphasis is placed upon the practical part, partly by the use of illustrating experiments and partly by doing experimental or numerical exercises with optical components.
