The demonstrated QCMs can reconstruct holographic images and display diffraction patterns simultaneously. Silicon nanofins are arranged in the Penrose tiling pattern as illustrated by the 2D color ...

A pulse of light sets the tempo in the material. Atoms in a crystalline sheet just a few atoms thick begin to move—not ...

Lensless imaging is an approach to microscopy in which a high-resolution image of an object is reconstructed from one or more measured diffraction patterns, providing a solution in situations where ...

Researchers built a silver-grooved chip that channels laser energy into nanometer-spaced peaks, beating the diffraction limit and aiding light-matter studies.

(Nanowerk Spotlight) All-optical processes could allow dramatic speed increase in photonics by eliminating the need to convert photonic signals to electronic signals and back for switching. The many ...

Two become one: various diffraction patterns showing Rayleigh's criterion. (Credit: Wikimedia Commons/Spencer Blevin) Scientists have long believed that diffraction limits the minimum distance that ...

THE attention given, in this laboratory and elsewhere, to the effects produced by passing a beam of Röntgen radiation through crystals suggested to me that it might be of interest to examine the image ...

A U.K.-Portuguese research group is proposing a new solar cell design based on diffraction gratings – optical components that split and diffract light into several beams. They claim this could lead to ...

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Vol. 293, No. 1433 (Jul. 26, 1966), pp. 169-180 (16 pages) The selected area electron diffraction patterns ...

The (relatively) ancient art of crystallography has had a huge impact on modern science by showing us the location of atoms within a molecule. The structure of DNA (and how it acts as an information ...

The spectrum of laser technologies available to hackers has gradually widened from basic gas lasers through CO2 tubes, diode lasers, and now fiber lasers. One of the newer entries is the MOPA laser, ...

The x-ray diffraction patterns of normal myelin, and of myelin expanded by soaking in hypotonic solutions, have been compared quantitatively. Application of the "shrinkage stage" method for ...
