Computer-generated holography (CGH) is an advanced technique that synthesises holograms through the numerical simulation of light diffraction and interference. By utilising digital algorithms to ...

Neutron diffraction and small-angle neutron scattering techniques can assess residual stress in and the microstructure of hydrocarbon pipelines. Neutron diffraction and small-angle neutron scattering ...

Increasingly complex applications such as artificial intelligence require ever more powerful and power-hungry computers to run. Optical computing is a proposed solution to increase speed and power ...

Diffraction spikes, visible in high-power astronomical images, are an intrinsic optical phenomenon in reflecting telescopes, primarily caused by the diffraction and subsequent interference of incoming ...

Researchers at Harvard University and Jiangsu University developed a technique for not only identifying infected cells, but also tracking the infection over time as the cells developed. They published ...

What is the Diffraction Limit? The diffraction limit is a fundamental barrier in optical microscopy that sets the minimum size of features that can be resolved using conventional light microscopes. It ...
