Recorded lectures of Peter Beyersdorf

  • 1 hour 14 seconds
    Modulators
    We look at the behavior of electrooptic devices as amplitude and phase modulators.
    6 May 2008, 11:12 pm
  • 1 hour 10 minutes
    Birefringence
    We look at birefringence in crystals and discuss optical activity and the Faraday effect.
    1 May 2008, 9:40 pm
  • 56 minutes 42 seconds
    Polarization of light
    We look at the vectorial nature of light and describe polarization in terms of Jones vectors
    24 April 2008, 8:01 pm
  • 18 minutes 26 seconds
    Diffraction from Double Slits
    Diffraction from a double slit is discussed. The convolution theorem is presented and the grating equation is derived. (incomplete)
    15 April 2008, 6:55 pm
  • 53 minutes 17 seconds
    More Diffraction
    We look at the relationship between far-field (Fraunhofer) diffraction and the Fourier transform, and explore the diffraction pattern of a uniformly illuminated circular aperture, which leads to the Rayleigh criterion for resolution in an optical system.
    10 April 2008, 7:04 pm
  • 1 hour 15 minutes
    Diffraction
    We look at Fraunhofer diffraction from a slit and for a Gaussian beam. We use Huygen's principle and also discuss Babinet's principle
    8 April 2008, 6:52 pm
  • 58 minutes 59 seconds
    More Fiber Optics
    We discuss unconventional types of fibers including photonic crystal fibers
    3 April 2008, 9:33 pm
  • 1 hour 17 minutes
    Fiber Optics
    We introduce the basic principles and parameters associated with fiber optics
    1 April 2008, 7:14 pm
  • 57 minutes 13 seconds
    Coherence
    We introduce the coherence function and look at the relationship between coherence, bandwidth and linewidth.
    20 March 2008, 6:48 pm
  • 1 hour 15 minutes
    Fourier Analysis
    Fourier Series are introduced and are generalized to the Fourier sine and cosine tansform
    18 March 2008, 6:53 pm
  • 1 hour 16 minutes
    Fabry-Perot Interferometer
    We look at the transmission of a Fabry-Perot interferometer and discuss properties like the free spectral range, finesse and linewidth.
