Synopsis
An icon in the world of optics, Emil Wolf laid the foundations of contemporary physical optics by documenting the concept of spatial coherence before lasers were introduced. This powerful concept has influenced many areas of optical science and engineering, several of which are discussed in this book and are intended to pay homage to one of the great minds of physical optics. The material is presented by major experts in the field, many of them closely connected to Emil Wolf's Institute of Optics at University of Rochester.

Hardcover. Etat : Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Format is approximately 7.25 inches by 10.25 inches. xxiv, [2], 510 pages. Illustrations (some in color). Formulae. References. Index. Emil Wolf (July 30, 1922 - June 2, 2018) was a Czech-born American physicist who made advancements in physical optics, including diffraction, coherence properties of optical fields, spectroscopy of partially coherent radiation, and the theory of direct scattering and inverse scattering. He was also the author of numerous other contributions to optics. He was forced to leave his native country when the Germans invaded. After brief periods in Italy and France (where he worked for the Czech government in exile), he moved to the United Kingdom in 1940. He received his B.Sc. in Mathematics and Physics (1945), and Ph.D. in Mathematics from Bristol University, England, in 1948. Between 1951 and 1954 he worked at the University of Edinburgh with Max Born, writing the famous textbook Principles of Optics now usually known simply as Born and Wolf. He moved to the United States in 1959 to take a position at the University of Rochester. He became a naturalized U.S. citizen and was the Wilson Professor of Optical Physics at the University of Rochester. He was president of the Optical Society of America in 1978. Wolf predicted a new mechanism that produces redshift and blueshift, that is not due to moving sources (Doppler effect), that has subsequently been confirmed experimentally (called the Wolf effect). The Wolf effect can produce either redshifts or blueshifts, depending on the observer's point of view, but is redshifted when the observer is head-on. An icon in the world of optics, Emil Wolf laid the foundations of contemporary physical optics by documenting the concept of spatial coherence before lasers were introduced. This powerful concept has influenced many areas of optical science and engineering, several of which are discussed in this book and are intended to pay homage to one of the great minds of physical optics. The material is presented by major experts in the field, many of them closely connected to Emil Wolf's Institute of Optics at University of Rochester. Dr. Tomasz Jannson, Senior Vice President, Chief Technology Officer, of Physical Optics Corporation (POC) was born May 19, 1943 to Janina Lubieniecka in Warsaw, Poland, and grew up just outside Warsaw in a small village called Sochocin. In high school, Tomasz enjoyed studying chemistry, physics and particularly Einstein's "Theory of Relativity". He received B.S.E.E in 1965, his M.S.E.E. in 1968 and then his Ph.D. in Applied Optics in 1973 from Warsaw Technical University, where he continued his research as faculty member, was director of two optical laboratories, and Principal Investigator of several research programs in the areas of information processing, holography, and electro-optics. After coming to the United States in 1981, Tomasz held many positions including General Manager and Chief Optical Scientist of the R&D division of National Technical Systems, Inc. (1980-1981), and Senior Research Scientist at Northrop Research Center (1982-1985), where he co-invented Northrop's neuro-optic processor architecture. Tomasz began working at POC in 1985 as Vice President for Research & Development and held this position until 1988 when he became Vice President for the Products & Engineering Division until 1990. Tomasz then became a Vice President & General Manager of the Applied Technologies Division until he became POC's Chief Technology Officer in 1996 - a position he held until now. Throughout his career at POC, Tomasz was a leading force in orienting the company toward applications and product-oriented photonic technologies. Over the years, Tomasz provided technical and managerial leadership on a large number of technologies that began with Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) programs and were later transitioned into production both within POC and in numerous spin-off companies and license agreements. Tomasz was a prolific technical writer who authored or contributed to hundreds of technical papers, over a hundred patent and patent applications, and co-author of three books. Tomasz was also a member of IEEE, the Optical Society of America, and elected a Fellow of SPIE in July, 1999. N° de réf. du vendeur 85322
