It’s not often we see candy optics, but we like it — and if you fail, you can always eat your mistakes and try again. If you’re wondering what you can do with a diffraction grating ...

The phenomenon of wave interference, which is the basis of how a grating works, is first explored our introductory optics and thermodynamics course (PHY 203), revisited with deeper experiments in ...

The engineering team at Shanghai Optics is skilled in spectrometer design for research, industrial, medical and defense applications. At its simplest, an optical spectrometer consists of an entrance ...

A fresh example of fiber optic sensors increasingly finding applications in stress measurement is exemplified by the launch of FBGS’s All Grating Fiber. The company says that this development enables ...

Another benefit of holographic gratings is that they are easily formed on concave surfaces, allowing them to operate as both the focusing optic and the dispersive element simultaneously. The amount of ...

The light is deflected using an invisible grating made of air shaped by acoustics. In optics systems, lasers are usually redirected using lenses and mirrors, but at high energies, such as those ...

Meta-grating with a fourfold increase in efficiency ... might benefit considerably from the technological advances of meta-optics. Provided by Karlsruhe Institute of Technology ...

The team’s acousto-optic Bragg grating could lead to new and useful ways to manipulate light. From gravitational wave detection to semiconductor fabrication, much of modern science and technology ...

A fiber Bragg grating is an optical element inscribed ... In The Optical Society (OSA) journal Optics Letters, the researchers show that gratings etched into the bioresorbable glass fiber dissolve ...

This is because in this "tender" energy range between soft and hard X-rays, conventional X-ray optics from plane grating or crystal monochromators deliver only very low efficiencies. A team from ...
