Synopsis:

The lecture covers the basics of the Fourier optics and optical information processing. It systematically discusses the Fourier formalism in optics, it mentions also other optical transforms. The propagation and diffraction of light is described in terms of the Fourier optics, using the impulse response, the optical transfer function, the thin transparency, and the phase corrector. Within the recording and modulation of the optical information, the special attention is given, apart from the traditional photographic films, especially to the holography, the spatial light modulators, and the diffractive structures. The lecture also describes the basic processing of analogue, discrete, and logic optical information.

Requirements:

It is recommended to study the subject Optical Physics 1 (12FOPT1,2) prior to the Optical Signal Processing.
