Through a series of measurements, we get acquainted with basic concepts and phenomena such as: light sources - radiation - reflectivity - absorption - photometry - basic photometric quantities. Next, we examine phenomena such as - light interference (two-beam interference, multi-beam interference), diffraction, light dispersion, refractive index, light polarization, optical activity. From the lecture we will repeat the basics of optical imaging - geometric optics and explain the construction of selected optical instruments, such as: photometer, microscope, telescope, monochromator, spectrometer, refractometer, interferometer, etc.) Some will be constructed and their parameters verified. We will measure some basic physical constants.
Each mathematical formulation of the investigated physical dependence (phenomenon) can be transformed into a certain measurable dependence (dependent on the so-called parameters). These are usually of various importance in terms of the phenomenon under study. In addition to storing the measured data, it is appropriate to display the measured data continuously graphically, which allows, especially when compared with the expected functional dependence, better visual inspection and more prompt detection and possible elimination of found errors.
There is a computer for each task. It includes instructions for the task, a program for evaluating measurements and graphical display of measured data and a program for a virtual experiment in the case of distance learning or. the need to carry out a parallel experiment to better understand the phenomenon. The measured tasks and their selection can be adapted to the respective field of study.
