Many students outside IISER Pune have been following my course blog on Quantum Optics, so I thought I would share some lectures too. I have recorded some discussion related to statistical optics, and will eventually connect them to quantum optics in a few lectures.
Lecture 1 – Quantum Optics via Statistical Optics
topics discussed:
Temporal coherence function
Degree of temporal coherence function
Coherence time
Coherence length
Power spectral density
Spectral width
Lecture 2:
Spatial Coherence
Mutual Intensity
Coherence Area
Cross-Spectra Density
Partially Coherent Waves
Interference Equation
Visibility
Interference & Temporal Coherence
Interference & Spatial Coherence
