Optics (PAX2PH91)
Instrumental Optics
PAX2PH91 – Phy236
L1 Bio-International
Summary
This course on Instrumental Optical concerns itself with the properties of light in geometrical optics, and image formation in particular, as well as polarization of light in its propagation in anisotropic media. The course work is supported by a laboratory with three sessions (practicals) dealing with the workings of an optical microscope and the polarization of light.
University Course Website Chamilo
All course information will appear on the Chamilo website at:
https://chamilo.univ-grenoble-alpes.fr/courses/PAX1PH91/
From there (after login), navigate toward the bottom center en click on the "Groupes" button.
Next find the "PHY132_Bio-Int_EPP" section at the bottom of the page.
Notably, we will use this part of Chamilo to exchange assignments and their evaluations.
