This chapter is intended primarily to replicate §I.B from the online class notes — see also an updated Table of Contents — that I developed in conjunction with a course that I taught in 1999 on the topic of Computer Generated Holography (CGH) for a subset of LSU physics majors who were interested in computational science.

Propagation of Light

Here we reference heavily the traveling, wave-like nature of light and, as is customary, use <math>~c</math> to represent its speed of propagation through space. Consider a single ray of light of wavelength,
