• Physical optics theory 
• Source modeling; partially coherent, broadband, pulsed fields 
• Field tracing concepts and models 
• Physical optics effects; polarization, coherence, shifts 
• Diffractive optics at short wavelengths 
• Subwavelength structures, metamaterials, and plasmonics 
• Photometric and radiometric detectors in physical optics  
• Diffraction gratings 
• Diffractive- and meta-lenses 
• Light shaping; DOE, diffuser, freeform 
• Virtual and augmented reality 
• Industrial and commercial applications
