Holography by M Françon( Book )

50 editions published between 1111 and 2013 in 5 languages and held by 1,000 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Die Holographie ist durch ihre Entwicklungen und durch ihre Anwen dungen einer der wiehtigsten Zweige der modernen Optik geworden. Mit ihrer Hilfe konnen einfache und zugleieh elegante Experimente durch gefUhrt werden, die groBe Moglichkeiten eroffnen. Die Rekonstruktion von dreidimensionalen und von farbigen Bildern, die einen vollkomme nen raumlichen Eindruck vermitteln, ist sieher eine der eindrucksvollsten Errungenschaften der Holographie, aber man sollte dariiber nicht die bemerkenswerten Resultate vergessen, die auf zahlreichen anderen Gebieten erzielt wurden, besonders in der Interfe

Progress in microscopy by M Françon( Book )

27 editions published between 1961 and 2014 in 3 languages and held by 515 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Progress in Microscopy details the advancement in various areas of microscopy. The title covers the phenomena, techniques, measurements, and equations. The text first details the physical aspects of image formation in microscopy, and then proceeds to tackling phase contrast, interference, and reflected-light microscopy. Next, the selection deals with the geometrical measurements and the measurement of refraction indices, thickness, and slope. The text also covers infra-red and ultra-violet microscopy, microspectroscopy, microspectrophotometry, and chemical microscopy. The book will be

Diffraction : coherence in optics by M Françon( Book )

15 editions published between 1964 and 2014 in 4 languages and held by 405 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Diffraction: Coherence in Optics presents a detailed account of the course on Fraunhofer diffraction phenomena, studied at the Faculty of Science in Paris. The publication first elaborates on Huygens' principle and diffraction phenomena for a monochromatic point source and diffraction by an aperture of simple form. Discussions focus on diffraction at infinity and at a finite distance, simplified expressions for the field, calculation of the path difference, diffraction by a rectangular aperture, narrow slit, and circular aperture, and distribution of luminous flux in the airy spot. The
