Prism Types and their Applications in Optical Systems
This is an extension on our prior blog post “Prisms: A General Overview” that can be found here. In this post, we will include a further discussion of various commonly used nondispersive prism ...
Introduction to Detecting and Diagnosing Light: Beam Parameters
Choosing the type of laser for your experiment or project may be a daunting task. With so many beam parameters to select from, how do you know where to start? One of the best ways to tackle any task is to ...
Corneal Imaging Methods (in vivo): A Crash Course
The cornea protects the eye from debris and germs from the environment and accounts for roughly two-thirds of the eye’s focusing power. Corneal imaging is critical in diagnosing and determining treatment ...
Lattice Light Sheet Microscopy: Fundamentals and Embryonic Imaging
Lattice Light Sheet Microscopy (LLSM) is a variant of conventional Light Sheet Microscopy (LSM). In short, LLSM utilizes a lattice of light beams to image a specimen. While LSM techniques illuminate single ...
Light Sheet Microscopy- Principles and Biomed Applications
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 ...
Photonics in Medicine: Top 5 Biomedical Impacts
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 ...
Hyperspectral Imaging for Thyroid and Salivary Gland Tumor Detection
Thyroid and Salivary Gland Tumor Detection Salivary gland tumors and thyroid tumors are both considered head and neck cancers, so they are often grouped together when discussing diagnoses or treatments. ...
Fluorescence Microscopy: Multiphoton and Other Techniques
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 ...
In Ovo Spectroscopy for Chicken Egg Sex Determination
In ovo spectroscopy is an emerging technology for the welfare of baby chicks. In the egg industry male chicks are considered flaws in production. Egg laying breeds do not grow enough meat for production, ...
Digital Holography: Interferometric Imaging of Biological Samples
High Resolution Microscopy Image quality in high-resolution optical microscopy is predominately restricted by the diffraction limit– a fundamental consequence of using lenses. High-resolution ...
