Anti-reflection coatings reduce unwanted reflections, preserving image contrast and improving light transmission.

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 ...

The basics of fiber optic cables and bundles and how they can be used to collect and direct light are discussed in ‘An Introduction to a Spectrometer: Fiber Optic Bundles’. This article will discuss ...

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 ...
