序言The level of treatment in this book is that of the fourth year of an M. Phys. undergraduate course in the UK. However, I have tried to give descriptions that are simple enough to be followed by someone at an ear-lier stage who seeks a 'different' account of the more basic material. And graduates may find that some 'well-understood' ideas offer un expected challenges. The topics included here are more than could be covered inthe time available in any one undergraduate course, but different courseswill, quite properly, make different selections of material.I concentrate on 'physical' optics (light as a wave), and describe onlyas much geometrical optics as is really necessary. A thick lens is men-tioned only three times. Lens design and optical aberrations are hardlymentioned at all, and then in terms of an optical transfer function rathert han Seidel sums. I justify this exclusion on the ground that lens de-sign is now wholly done by computer-aided optimization, description ofwhich would require a very different style of presentation. This book might better have been called 'semi-classical optics', sincethe photon nature of light is not ignored. Indeed, photon emission anddetection are inherently quantum-mechanical. However, our main con-cern, the passage of light between emission and detection, can usually be treated classically. Those phenomena, such as entanglement or anti-bunching, that require 'quantum optics' proper lie outside our remit.Even so, I have tried, in Chapter 10, to explain where the interface lies between the (semi-)classical and quantum regimes. In a book of this length, some selection of topics is unavoidable, evenwithin physical optics. In particular I regret the omission of interferencemicroscopes (too large a digression) and of adaptive optics applied toEarth-bound astronomical telescopes (too computational). A book is a linear structure: from beginning to end. Under standingis not like that. It's achieved by reading interactively: checking calcula-tions; cross-linking new information withof implications and possible objectionsold; asking 'what if'; thinkingWhy is always assumed tobe 1 at optical frequencies? Why is an electromagnetic wave always dis-cussed in terms of its E-field when B is equally significant in the Maxwelle quations? A Fabry-Perot and a thin film are very similar structures;why then are the methods of analysis so different? Can we trust theKirchhoff-assumption boundary conditions used in diffraction, and howcould we find out? Why are the fields inside a laser cavity mathemati-cally similar to the wave functions for a simple harmonic oscillator?
