Ultra-high resolution Fourier domain optical coherence tomography for resolving thin layers in painted works of art [PDF]
While OCT has been applied to the non-invasive examination of the stratigraphy of paint layers in recent years, it has been recognized that the resolutions of commercially available OCT cannot compete in depth resolution with conventional microscopic ...
