ECTS credit allocation (and other scores): (not available) Basic information on ECTS credits allocation principles:
  • the annual hourly workload of the student’s work required to achieve the expected learning outcomes for a given stage is 1500-1800h, corresponding to 60 ECTS;
  • the student’s weekly hourly workload is 45 h;
  • 1 ECTS point corresponds to 25-30 hours of student work needed to achieve the assumed learning outcomes;
  • weekly student workload necessary to achieve the assumed learning outcomes allows to obtain 1.5 ECTS;
  • work required to pass the course, which has been assigned 3 ECTS, constitutes 10% of the semester student load.

Prerequisites (description):

Students must be classified as "physical basis for the Ophthalmic Opticians I and Mathematics I

Short description:

The fundamentals of physics for students of eye glasses optics faculty.

The second part of the course should familiarize students with issues allowed to learn the professional courses.

Full description:

The aim of the lecture is to expand the knowledge obtained in the secondary school.

The program includes the basics of wave optics.

Program

1. Maxwell's equations in integral notation.

2. Electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic wave energy.

3. Reflection and refraction of light, material dispersion.

4. Polarisation of light, obtaining polarised light. Malus' law. Crystal anisotropy, birefringence.

6. Interference and coherence of light.

7. Interference with multiple reflections. Interference filters.

8. Single slit diffraction. Diffraction grating.

9. Photoelectric effect.

10. Wave-particle dualism of light.

11. Model of the atom, energy levels.

12. Line, continuous and absorption spectra, black body radiation.

13. The principle of lasers.

Preparing to pass the course the student will take approximately 180 hours.
