Review & Description

Praise for the First Edition

"Now a new laboratory bible for optics researchers has joined the list: it is Phil Hobbs's Building Electro-Optical Systems: Making It All Work."
—Tony Siegman, Optics & Photonics News

Building a modern electro-optical instrument may be the most interdisciplinary job in all of engineering. Be it a DVD player or a laboratory one-off, it involves physics, electrical engineering, optical engineering, and computer science interacting in complex ways. This book will help all kinds of technical people sort through the complexity and build electro-optical systems that just work, with maximum insight and minimum trial and error.

Written in an engaging and conversational style, this Second Edition has been updated and expanded over the previous edition to reflect technical advances and a great many conversations with working designers. Key features of this new edition include:

• Expanded coverage of detectors, lasers, photon budgets, signal processing scheme planning, and front ends
• Coverage of everything from basic theory and measurement principles to design debugging and integration of optical and electronic systems
• Supplementary material is available on an ftp site, including an additional chapter on thermal Control and Chapter problems highly relevant to real-world design
• Extensive coverage of high performance optical detection and laser noise cancellation

Each chapter is full of useful lore from the author's years of experience building advanced instruments. For more background, an appendix lists 100 good books in all relevant areas, introductory as well as advanced. Building Electro-Optical Systems: Making It All Work, Second Edition is essential reading for researchers, students, and professionals who have systems to build. Read more

Diffractive Optics: Design, Fabrication, and Test (SPIE Tutorial Texts in Optical Engineering Vol. TT62) (Paperback)

Customer tags: optics, optoelectronics

Review & Description

This book provides the reader with the broad range of materials that were discussed in a series of short courses presented at Georgia Tech on the design, fabrication, and testing of diffractive optical elements (DOEs). Although there are not long derivations or detailed methods for specific engineering calculations, the reader should be familiar and comfortable with basic computational techniques. This text is not a ''cookbook'' for producing DOEs, but it should provide readers with sufficient information to assess whether this technology would benefit their work, and to understand the requirements for using the concepts and techniques presented by the authors.

Contents

- Preface
- Introduction
- Scalar Diffraction Theory
- Electromagnetic Analysis of Diffractive Optical Elements
- Diffractive Lens Design
- Design of Diffraction Gratings
- Making a DOE
- Photolithographic Fabrication of Diffractive Optical Elements
- Survey of Fabrication Techniques for Diffractive Optical Elements
- Testing Diffractive Optical Elements
- Application of Diffractive Optics to Lens Design
- Additional Applications of Diffractive Optical Elements
- Index Read more

Review & Description

This is a new and greatly expanded edition of what has become one of the best known introductions to the principles, techniques and applications of optical holography. Where necessary, existing sections have been updated to cover several new techniques and applications and two new chapters have been added. After presenting the theory of holographic imaging and the various types of holograms, the author covers practical aspects of holography, as well as the production of holograms for display, color holography, and computer generated holograms. He then discusses a variety of applications of holography in detail, such as high resolution imaging, information storage and processing, vibration analysis, and holographic interferometry. Containing more than 1000 selected references, this book will be invaluable to anyone wishing to learn more about optical holography, as well as to established researchers and engineers in this field.
