Lensless imaging is an approach to microscopy in which a high-resolution image of an object is reconstructed from one or more measured diffraction patterns, providing a solution in situations where ...

Shimadzu diffraction gratings are used in analytical instruments for research in the life sciences, chemistry, environmental monitoring, as well as synchrotron radiation and optical communications ...

In 1979, Martha Teeter and Wayne Hendrickson generated crystals of crambin, a small, hydrophobic protein found in the seeds of Abyssinian cabbage. These crystals diffracted to a remarkable 0.88 Å ...

One of the best known properties of light is that it diffracts, bending or spreading around objects that lie in its path. A familiar example is when a collimated beam of light passes through a small ...

Particle size analysis is crucial to quality control and product development in a number of key industries including aerosols, construction, food and beverage, paint and coatings, and pharmaceuticals.

Physicists have succeeded in "entangling" more than two photons for the first time. A Canadian team has entangled three photons while an Austrian team have created a four-photon entangled state. The ...

Filter is an optical device that can selectively pass through or block specific wavelengths of light, and is widely used in various fields according to its specific optical characteristics. The ...

In the last few weeks I've been working on a slightly more formal version of this post on black-body radiation for use in something else. One of the tricky things in writing about the development of ...
