Features: This book is written based on the author's many years of experience in teaching and conducting research in information optics. Information optics is a very broad research field, and its development is also very rapid. As a university textbook, it is difficult to comprehensively introduce the latest achievements in all aspects of information optics. Instead, it is essential for students to lay a solid theoretical foundation during their learning phase. The focus of this book is on systematically introducing the fundamental theories of information optics and their related application technologies, while also keeping in mind the current developments in theory and technology. This book systematically introduces the fundamental theories of information optics and their related applications. The book consists of 11 chapters, covering topics such as two-dimensional Fourier analysis, scalar diffraction theory, the frequency characteristics of optical imaging systems, partially coherent theory, optical holography, spatial filtering, coherent optical processing, incoherent optical processing, holographic interferometry, speckle metrology, moiré methods and moiré interferometry, etc. The book is rich in content and innovative in selection, systematically introducing fundamental theories while also addressing the current developments in theory and technology, emphasizing the integration of theory and application. The book includes over 100 selected examples and exercises, with detailed solutions provided for most of them to help readers deepen their understanding of the main text. The target readers of this book are senior undergraduate and graduate students in fields such as optics, optoelectronic technology, optical information science and technology, applied physics, precision instruments, and optical engineering. It can also serve as a reference for engineering technicians and university teachers and students in related fields.
