Properties of Light

This document discusses various properties and applications of light, including absorption, transmission, reflection, interference, diffraction, polarization, and detection using photodetectors such as photoconductors, junction photodiodes, avalanche photodiodes, and photo transistors. It also covers high speed measurements, wavelength selective detection, optical switches that can be opto-mechanical, electro-optic, thermo-optic, or acousto-optic, and applications in solar cells.
