Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
The applicant must first master the following disciplines in the scope of teaching at the physical faculties of classical universities: General Physics. Optics. Special course. Quantum electronics and physics of lasers. Special course. Nonlinear optics.
Course content
The special course examines the physical foundations and modern achievements of adaptive optics. The curriculum consists of three sections (topics): Topic 1. Methods of adaptive phase correction of light beams. Topic 2. Adaptive systems. Topic 3. Inversion of the wave front. The topics correspond to three content modules: - module 1 - topic 1; - module 2 - topic 2; - module 3 - topic 3.
