Researchers from the UK's Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC), Southampton, and Université Laval, Québec Canada, have successfully measured - for the first time - back-reflection in cutting-edge ...

The Goos-Hänchen effect describes a small but measurable lateral shift of an optical beam when it reflects or refracts at an interface, deviating from the path predicted by geometrical optics. This ...

High power ultraviolet laser systems place severe demands on optical coatings. In inertial confinement fusion, optical components must withstand repeated exposure to intense laser pulses while ...

When a spectrometer is being configured for a given experiment, one of the commonly overlooked considerations is in selecting the best fiber optic cable. While there are many different factors to ...
