Learning outcomes
|
Introduction to techniques of optical spectroscopy.
The aim of this course is to acquire basic knowledge in optical spectroscopy. Students know fundamental spectroscopy methods, they are able to describe utilization of dispersion elements and interferometers in spectroscopy. Students apply theoretical experience to processing of experimental data (spectra or interferograms).
