LET 25 FUNDAMENTALS OF LIGHT

3 Units - 2.5 hours lecture, 1.5 hours lab
Transfers: CSU, UC
This course introduces the fundamental properties of light, including its interaction with and generation from materials. Optical hardware is used in lecture demonstrations and laboratory experiments to show how light can be controlled. Essential components of optical systems are studied, including lenses, mirrors, prisms, windows, sources, detectors, optoelectronics, polarizers, fibers, and gratings. Students will gain hands-on experience with industrial hardware and tools as they construct basic optical component test setups and systems in the laboratory. LET 25 was formerly offered as LET 205.
