This book explores a wide range of light phenomena observed both in nature and laboratory environments. It presents practical examples that can be applied to experimental setups, including matrix optics for building complex optical systems, wave optics using interferometers for high-precision measurements, and Jones-Stokes-Müller calculus for polarization analysis.

This book also covers astronomical applications, such as telescope design aimed at minimizing optical aberrations, and the use of doublet and triplet lenses to correct spherochromatism. It introduces the transport equation in the context of paraxial optics, providing insights into the Fresnel transform, Gaussian beams, and Bessel beams. A section on Gabor optics examines novel microlens-based systems, while the discussion of relativistic photonics highlights the selection of coordinate systems suited to materials and boundaries.

Combining theoretical foundations with real-world applications, this book is an essential resource for researchers, engineers, and students engaged in contemporary optical signal processing.

Benoît Plancoulaine began his academic career in 1982 as a lecturer and researcher at the University of Caen. His early teaching focused on computer programming and the management of emerging computer networks, and he was named Chevalier des Palmes Académiques in recognition of his contributions.

His research later specialized in precision optics, Whole Slide Imaging (WSI) for pathology, and signal processing, particularly in frame-readable text and wavelet analysis. For his scientific achievements, he was awarded the title Officier des Palmes Académiques.

In the final decade of his teaching career, he taught optics at the University of Caen s Institute of Technology. He was later honored with the title of Professor Emeritus by the Dean of the University, enabling him to continue his research and collaborations with regional industry partners in optics.
