Ringkasan	Mueller-Stokes calculus is a mathematical framework for describing and analyzing the polarization properties of light, including partially polarized and unpolarized light. Grounded in George Gabriel Stokes' 1852 work on polarization parameters and extended by Hans Mueller in 1948, this formalism uses the four-component Stokes vector and the 4×4 Mueller matrix to track how optical systems transform polarization states.	Fourier optics is a mathematical framework that analyzes optical systems and phenomena using Fourier transforms and frequency-domain methods. Grounded in Joseph Fourier's 1822 work on heat diffusion and Ernst Abbe's microscopy theory, this approach decomposes optical fields into plane waves or spatial frequencies, revealing how optical systems manipulate and filter these components to produce images and transmit information.	Interferogram fringe analysis is a computational methodology for extracting quantitative information from interference fringe patterns recorded in optical systems. Rooted in Thomas Young's 1801 double-slit experiment and formalized in 20th-century metrology, this approach interprets the spatial patterns of constructive and destructive interference to measure surface topography, optical aberrations, refractive-index distributions, and other optical properties with high precision.
