Course contents:
Fundamental laws of geometrical optics. Index of refraction, dispersion
of optical materials. Fermat's principle - refraction and reflection of
light on an interface of two isotropic environments. Planparallel plate,
wedge prism, prism for refraction - minimum deviation. Refraction on
sphere, beam passage through a system of spherical surfaces, principle
points and principal planes, focal length, magnification. Thick (thin)
lens, image equation, lens system and its solution. Fresnel's formulas -
total reflection, Brewster's angle, imaging by mirror. Imaging of points
in space on a level with tolerated unsharpness. Limitation of ray beams
in optical system - basic characteristics of optical system. Aberrations,
methods of calculations and correction, Abbe's and Herschel's conditions.
