SPIE - Education The Very Least You Need To Know About Optics SC1170

The best way to understand how light works is to work with light. This course teaches non-technical professionals to think like a photon. Participants work with optical components to establish an intuitive understanding of core optical principles such as wavelength, refraction, interference, and dispersion. Upon completion, participants will have a fundamental grasp of how and why essential optical components, such as lenses, work, and they will be prepared to study more specialized topics related to specific industries. This hands-on class is limited to 16 participants. Early registration is recommended. The best way to understand how light works is to work with light.
