Construction of an optical test-bed for eLISA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In the planned eLISA mission a key part of the system is the optical bench that holds the interferometers for reading out the inter-spacecraft distance and the test mass position.

Optimal Concentration of Light in Turbid Materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In turbid materials it is impossible to concentrate light into a focus with conventional optics. Recently it has been shown that the intensity on a dyed probe inside a turbid material can be enhanced by spatially shaping the wave front of light before it

Tuning Knobs for the NLC Final Focus

open access: yes, 2002
Compensation of optics errors at the Interaction Point (IP) is essential for maintaining maximum luminosity at the NLC. Several correction systems (knobs) using the Final Focus sextupoles have been designed to provide orthogonal compensation of linear ...

Full-field hard x-ray microscopy with interdigitated silicon lenses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Full-field x-ray microscopy using x-ray objectives has become a mainstay of the biological and materials sciences. However, the inefficiency of existing objectives at x-ray energies above 15 keV has limited the technique to weakly absorbing or two ...

Optical microscope illumination analysis using through-focus scanning optical microscopy [PDF]

open access: yesOptics Letters, 2017
Misalignment of the aperture diaphragm present in optical microscopes results in angular illumination asymmetry (ANILAS) at the sample plane. Here we show that through-focus propagation of ANILAS results in a lateral image shift with a focus position.

Ray pencils of general divergency

open access: yesAfrican Vision and Eye Health, 2009
That a thin refracting element can have a dioptric power which is asymmetric immediately raises questions at the fundamentals of linear optics.  In optometry the important concept of vergence, in particular, depends on the concept of a pencil of rays ...

Metasurface Optics for Full-color Computational Imaging

open access: yes, 2018
Conventional imaging systems comprise large and expensive optical components which successively mitigate aberrations. Metasurface optics offers a route to miniaturize imaging systems by replacing bulky components with flat and compact implementations ...
