Explores curve integrals of vector fields, emphasizing energy considerations for motion against or with wind, and introduces unit tangent and unit normal vectors.
Explores Fresnel diffraction, Fraunhofer diffraction, the Babinet principle, and optical microscope resolution, as well as near-field microscopy and SNOM/NSOM imaging.
Explores the derivation of the diffusion equation using Fourier transforms and discusses the significance of Dirac delta functions in mathematical analysis.
Discusses wave-matter interactions, focusing on diffraction and diffusion phenomena, including principles of reflection, refraction, and the significance of X-ray interactions.
