Optical design and optimization with physical optics
SPIE Proceedings, 1990This paper describes implementation of optimization methods in physical optics modeling, similar to those used in geometrical lens design, but capable of treating the greater range of performance aspects which may be considered in a physical optics treatment.

Physical and geometrical optics of phonons
Physica B: Condensed Matter, 1999Abstract Several experiments are presented to study the physical and geometrical optics of narrow diffraction-limited monochromatic phonon beams in the frequency range 1–6 GHz. The experiments include diffraction by fixed and sideward moving gratings, and the realization of a phonon lens.

We outline the basic principles of optical tweezers as well as the fundamental theory underlying optical tweezers. The optical forces responsible for trapping result from the transfer of momentum from the trapping beam to the particle and are explained in terms of the momenta of incoming and reflected or refracted rays.

Publisher Summary This chapter introduces the main physical effects that are used to generate photonic modulators. It discusses some of the effects that are more relevant or more applicable than others to be used in integrated photonic circuits. The magneto-optic (MO) effect, known also as the Faraday effect, is the creation of circular birefringence (

Abstract : The following problems have been studied (1) the use of light scattering techniques to make quasi-binary decisions about small systems in real time (2) tunneling through barrier between quantum wells (3) diffraction feedback lasers which involves the interaction of light with micro systems, including the use of spontaneous emission as a ...

Physical Optics, Wave Optics, and Fourier Optics
1991When any of the dimensions or sizes of the components in an optical system is on the order of wavelength, then the methods discussed under geometrical optics do not give the proper solution to the problem. For this case, we must start from Maxwell’s equations, and derive the wave equation from which the proper solution to this problem can be obtained.
