This text links the theory of Fraunhofer (far-field) diffraction with the applied mathematical method of discrete Fourier transforms. With this practical approach, readers have the opportunity to implement computational techniques that are practical in nature. In addition to providing a comprehensive and practical approach to far-field diffraction, the authors present a recently established complement to traditional microscopy: Dynamic Optical Diffraction (DOD). This method relies on tracking temporal changes in an oversampled species. The authors, Prof. Jenny Magnes and Prof. Juan Merlo-Ram­rez, drew on years of pedagogical experience to fill in the elementary material often omitted from the literature on diffraction and Fourier transforms. Their years of experience in teaching at the undergraduate level make this book appealing.

Key Features:

  • Provides an introduction to optical interference and diffraction.
  • Includes worked examples and experimental data.
  • Contains end of chapter summaries and chapter problems.
  • Presents descriptions and results of hands-on experiments with live species.
  • Suitable for undergraduates and first year graduate students
