Matrix vs AR Fourier Optics Lab

The MatrixAnalysis is carefully designed to be a simple and elegant app. This app has tools to help you analyze matrices like finding eigenvalues and eigenvectors, diagonalization, QR, SLU, LU factorization. This app can also be used to do matrix operations like, finding inverse, determinant, dot product, cross product, and much more. You can also do elementwise operations and scalar operations. Want to do fast fourier transform (FFT) or inverse fourier transform (IFFT), this app is capable of IFFT Want to find an pseudo inverse of a non-square matrix, this app has you covered Want to know a rotation matrix for a given angle or rotate a vector by the given angle? This app has you covered. The expressions and the solutions are displayed in beautiful mathematical way. Once the expressions are solved, a beautifully written solutions are created that you can share with other or save it locally. It automatically saves your hard work locally on your device so you can come back and pick up from where you left off as your great effort will not be lost. There is also a Study page to help you with learning some important matrix vector formulas and some useful technique. This is an app for all student groups. From high school to college to university students. Be creative. Enjoy the app!

In the middle of the 19th century, Ernst Abbe revolutionized optics with his diffraction theory of the microscope. He predicted the resolution limit and derived mathematical guidelines for high-performance devices which became known as the "Fourier Optics" method. This enabled Carl Zeiss to design instruments by prior calculations and started the industrialization of physical instrumentation. Understanding Fourier Optics is an important learning goal in every undergraduate optics course. This App was build to teach the basics of Fourier Optics in combination with an according lab experiment. It is intended for undergraduate students in Physics, Photonics and Optical Sciences. We recommend the use of the Thorlabs EDU-FOP2 Fourier Optics Kit: https://www.thorlabs.com/newgrouppage9.cfm?objectgroup_id=11829&pn=EDU-FOP2/M The App was designed to augment the learning content onto an existing EDU-FOP2 setup ("Lab Companion Mode"), but also allows a stand-alone use of the students at home ("Preparation Mode") or in cases where a suitable setup is not available. It will cover the following topics: - Introduction to Fourier Optics - Physical Background - Mathematical Background - Explanations on a typical lab setup with Köhler illumination (EDU-FOP2 from Thorlabs) - Applications - Historical Background
