H4348 - ALBERT FERRANDO COGOLLOS |
Met. Docent |
The theoretical content of the course will be developed (6 credits) and the solving of numerical exercices will be undertaken (4,5 credits). Moreover, the students must present solved ensembles of questions and numerical exercices proposed by the corresponding lecturers. |
Met. Avaluació |
The ordinary evaluation consists of written examinations (8 points) and home work (2 points), weighting theory (55%) and problems (45%). The second partial evaluation will take place together with the overall final evaluation. The extraordinary evaluation consists only of a written examination. |

Objetius |
The propagation of light rays in different media is studied with a geometric model. Imaging in paraxial approximation is considered using a matrix model. With a wave model, we consider the polarizations states of the light, its propagation in isotropic media and the modifications in the interface of two optically different media. Using the electron oscillator model, a study on the refraction index is made. Finally interference and diffracttion fenomena are considered as interaction light-light. |
