Light detectors, also known as photodetectors are common not just in labs, but in our everyday appliances. From automatic doors to video cameras, photodetectors are established technologies that help make ...

Stars. They are gazed at and wished upon. They have biblical, cultural, and scientific meaning. Stars retain a level of mystique regardless of wisdom or creed despite knowing they are simply balls of gas. ...

Overview Individual component materials affect much of the behavior of optical systems. Metamaterial components are no different. While silica-based glass lenses, prisms, and beamsplitters might be the ...

Two-photon excitation micoscopy (a.k.a. TPEF/ 2PEF) is the most common type of multiphoton fluorescence microscopy. It is a very interesting and useful technique for its ability to lock down on very ...

Light Sheet Microscopy (LSM), a.k.a. single plane illumination microscopy (SPIM), is a technique that allows for high resolution imaging of very small structures. This makes it one of the most popular ...

Researchers began manipulating laser technologies to use in scientific research long time ago. Which began as abstract exploration of the behavior of light and its interaction with nature, soon turned into ...

Fluorescence Microscopy is a Light Microscopy technique that utilizes fluorescence and phosphorescence to capture images of organic or inorganic structures. It is one of the most common instruments in ...

Ultraviolet Doppler Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (UV-DOAS) is a long distance measurement technique used for detecting chemicals in the atmosphere. This technology is important in our modern world where ...

Wind and rainfall must be closely monitored in many domains including agricultural planning, flight safety, and early warnings of hazardous weather. Wind and rain detection is also important for long-term ...

Introduction: Women make up about 19% of SPIE Optics and Photonics (one of the leading optics/photonics exhibitions and conferences) plenary speakers, representative of an overall lack of diversity in ...
