Optical aberration theory remains a fundamental component in the design and operation of space telescopes. With increasingly ambitious astronomical missions and the demand for high-resolution imaging, ...

Not an aberration: schematic drawing of the metalens (left), which is made of tiny titanium waveguides. The drawing on the right is of a single waveguide. (Courtesy Boubacar Kanté) A new type of ...

This paper covers a discussion of the Abbe Sine Condition and its implication for Flat Optics, including the effects of stop shift and substrate curvature. Following that, we apply Sweatt’s high index ...

Enable processing of optical substrates at multiple focal point depths. Barrington, NJ USA — Edmund Optics, a leading global manufacturer and supplier of optical ...

Depth sensing plays a crucial role in various applications, including robotics, augmented reality, and autonomous driving. Monocular passive depth sensing techniques have come into their own for their ...

Optical aberrations and the errors they introduce are a standard obstacle in localization microscopy techniques, and hinder the gathering of depth information from a biological sample. A project at ...

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Wave-guided optics application technology may now help patients with keratoconus, according to a speaker at Optometry’s Meeting. “We know a lot of our irregular cornea patients ...

Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) is a microscopy technique widely used to investigate cells and tissues. Even though first biomedical applications based on QPI have been developed, both acquisition ...

Structured light passing through a noisy environment gets distorted (a), but if another unstructured beam also gains the same distortion, the effect can be undone by mixing them in a nonlinear crystal ...

Meta-optics is a rapidly emerging field that combines the principles of metamaterials and optical engineering to control and manipulate light in unprecedented ways. It involves the design and ...

Researchers detail how they used a type of 3D printing known as two-photon lithography to create lenses that combine refractive and diffractive surfaces. In a new study, researchers have shown that 3D ...
