Using laser diffraction to determine sediment grain-size distributions is faster than sieving methods; however, the results of these analytical methods can often differ. Samples are generally only ...

The reduced dimensionality and broken symmetry of a surface endows it with unique physical and chemical properties that drastically differ from the bulk 1,2. Prominent surface-specific features ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract A short-wave problem of reflection and radiation by an open end of a two-dimensional planar waveguide is studied. The incident mode is assumed ...

Experiments were conducted to establish a laser diffraction-based method for the determination of lactose powder particle size. This was accomplished using a Bettersizer 2600 equipped with a fully ...

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 ...

This article explains the reason why so many manufacturers need to measure particle size and the reason behind laser diffraction being the method of choice. Different industries measure particle size ...

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

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

[The Thought Emporium] has been fascinated by holograms for a long time, and in all sorts of different ways. His ultimate goal right now is to work up to creating holograms using chocolate, but along ...

Diffraction occurs when a wave encounters an obstruction in its path and will change direction, or wrap around it. In ocean waves, we see this occur when a wave encounters an object like a jetty and ...

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR), a global leader in laser and photonics solutions, today announced the launch of its Ultrabroadband UV-VIS and VIS-NIR ...
