Optical Surfaces Ltd. is a leading international manufacturer of large diameter, ultra-smooth off-axis parabolic mirrors for demanding applications. Looking to develop their next generation of ...

Today, astronomers seek to observe the faintest and most distant objects possible. Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs), with apertures in the order of several dozen meters, are the next generation ...

In this interview, AZoM talks to Daniel Brau, Managing Director of Photonic Science, about the working principles of diffraction Laue cameras, and what makes Photonic Science's Laue crystal ...

IT is a well-known fact that divergent electron beams of uniform velocity can be focused by means of magnetic fields. This focusing device is used, for example, in cathode ray oscillographs. It has ...

XRD works by directing X-rays onto a crystalline material and analyzing the angles and intensities of the diffracted beams. The atomic planes within the crystal act as a three-dimensional grating, ...

The spectrum of laser technologies available to hackers has gradually widened from basic gas lasers through CO2 tubes, diode lasers, and now fiber lasers. One of the newer entries is the MOPA laser, ...

X-ray diffraction (XRD) is a powerful non-destructive analytical technique used to evaluate crystalline materials and determine their structural properties. As one of the most widely used ...

Diffraction spikes, visible in high-power astronomical images, are an intrinsic optical phenomenon in reflecting telescopes, primarily caused by the diffraction and subsequent interference of incoming ...

Researchers from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology have published a review on serial femtosecond crystallography, one of the most promising methods for analyzing the tertiary structure of ...
