  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    The most common application for this is the treatment of strabismus. By moving the image in front of the deviated eye, double vision can be avoided and comfortable binocular vision can be achieved. Other applications include yoked prism where the image is shifted an equal amount in each eye.

    In contrast, spectacles with prisms of equal power for both eyes, called yoked prisms (also: conjugate prisms, ambient lenses or performance glasses) shift the visual field of both eyes to the same extent.

  4. Frequency-resolved optical gating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency-resolved_optical...

    Frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG) is a general method for measuring the spectral phase of ultrashort laser pulses, which range from subfemtosecond to about a nanosecond in length. Invented in 1991 by Rick Trebino and Daniel J. Kane, FROG was the first technique to solve this problem, which is difficult because, ordinarily, to measure an ...

  5. Chirped pulse amplification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chirped_pulse_amplification

    CPA for lasers was introduced by Donna Strickland and Gérard Mourou at the University of Rochester in the mid-1980s, [2] work for which they received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2018. [3] CPA is the current state-of-the-art technique used by most of the highest-power lasers in the world.

  6. Mode locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_locking

    Mode locking is a technique in optics by which a laser can be made to produce pulses of light of extremely short duration, on the order of picoseconds (10 −12 s) or femtoseconds (10 −15 s). A laser operated in this way is sometimes referred to as a femtosecond laser, for example, in modern refractive surgery.

  7. Double-slit experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-slit_experiment

    In the double-slit experiment, the two slits are illuminated by the quasi-monochromatic light of a single laser. If the width of the slits is small enough (much less than the wavelength of the laser light), the slits diffract the light into cylindrical waves.

  8. Optical parametric amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_parametric_amplifier

    An optical parametric amplifier, abbreviated OPA, is a laser light source that emits light of variable wavelengths by an optical parametric amplification process.

  9. Laser diffraction analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_diffraction_analysis

    Laser diffraction analysis, also known as laser diffraction spectroscopy, is a technology that utilizes diffraction patterns of a laser beam passed through any object ranging from nanometers to millimeters in size to quickly measure geometrical dimensions of a particle.

  10. Prism spectrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_spectrometer

    A prism spectrometer may be used to measure the refractive index of a material if the wavelengths of the light used are known. The calibration of a prism spectrometer is carried out with known spectral lines from vapor lamps or laser light.

  11. Dispersive prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersive_prism

    In optics, a dispersive prism is an optical prism that is used to disperse light, that is, to separate light into its spectral components (the colors of the rainbow). Different wavelengths (colors) of light will be deflected by the prism at different angles. [1]
