INTERESTING MATERIALS - OPTICS

• E.S.Putilin "Optical coatings"
  Conspect (in Russian!) of lectures with many examples and charts, including 3D charts. Matrix method of calculations of optical properties is thoroughly explained. Single-layer, two-layers, three-layers, reflective and narrow-bandpass filtering coatings are deeply reviewed and analyzed.

• Sh.A. Furman, A.V. Tikhonravov "Basics of optics of multilayer systems"
  A well-known monography dedicated to problems of analysis and synthesis of optical coatings from leaders in Russian optical coatings science. Different methods of calculations of optical properties are reviewed. A "needle-like variation" method of synthesis is proposed and investigated.
