Metamaterials for light rays: ray optics without wave-optical analog in the ray-optics limit [PDF]
, 2009 Volumes of sub-wavelength electromagnetic elements can act like homogeneous materials: metamaterials. In analogy, sheets of optical elements such as prisms can act ray-optically like homogeneous sheet materials.

Butterfly Optics Exceed the Theoretical Limits of Conventional Apposition Eyes [PDF]
, 1987 Optical experiments on butterfly compound eyes show that they have angular sensitivities narrower than expected from conventional apposition eyes. This superior performance is explained by a theoretical model where the cone stalk is considered as a ...

Image sharpening metrics and search strategies for indirect adaptive optics [PDF]
, 2000 Adaptive optics is concerned with the correction of turbulence induced aberrations and mis-alignments in optical systems. It is an expensive and complicated technology which has been developed for astronomy and defence applications.

Interferometric wavefront sensing for extreme adaptive optics [PDF]
, 2004 Adaptive optics is concerned with the correction of phase distortions in wavefronts which degrade the quality of images produced by optical systems. It was originally developed for both astronomy and the military, where the Earth's atmosphere causes ...

Matching optics for Gaussian beams [PDF]
, 1991 A system of matching optics for Gaussian beams is described. The matching optics system is positioned between a light beam emitter (such as a laser) and the input optics of a second optics system whereby the output from the light beam emitter is ...

Nonlinear Optics and Applications [PDF]
, 2007 Nonlinear optics is the result of laser beam interaction with materials and started with the advent of lasers in the early 1960s. The field is growing daily and plays a major role in emerging photonic technology.
