  2. Optical proximity correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_proximity_correction

    Optical proximity correction ( OPC) is a photolithography enhancement technique commonly used to compensate for image errors due to diffraction or process effects. The need for OPC is seen mainly in the making of semiconductor devices and is due to the limitations of light to maintain the edge placement integrity of the original design, after ...

  3. California Correctional Center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Correctional_Center

    California Correctional Center ( CCC) was a state prison in the city of Susanville in Northern California. [4] [5] It was a minimum-security facility. Also located in Susanville is the High Desert State Prison (California) (maximum security), and nearby the Federal Correctional Institution, Herlong. Lassen County has a concentration of prisons ...

  4. Optical disc drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_disc_drive

    t. e. In computing, an optical disc drive is a disc drive that uses laser light or electromagnetic waves within or near the visible light spectrum as part of the process of reading or writing data to or from optical discs. Some drives can only read from certain discs, but recent drives can both read and record, also called burners or writers ...

  5. History of the single-lens reflex camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_single-lens...

    The history of the single-lens reflex camera (SLR) begins with the use of a reflex mirror in a camera obscura described in 1676, but it took a long time for the design to succeed for photographic cameras. The first patent was granted in 1861, and the first cameras were produced in 1884, but while elegantly simple in concept, they were very ...

  6. Prism spectrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_spectrometer

    A prism spectrometer is an optical spectrometer which uses a dispersive prism as its dispersive element. The prism refracts light into its different colors ( wavelengths ). The dispersion occurs because the angle of refraction is dependent on the refractive index of the prism's material, which in turn is slightly dependent on the wavelength of ...

  7. Binoculars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binoculars

    Image orientation correction assembly. This is usually a prism assembly that shortens the optical path. Without this, the image would be inverted and laterally reversed, which is inconvenient for the user. Eyepiece lens assembly. This is the lens assembly near the user's eyes. Its function is to magnify the image.

  8. Prism coupler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_coupler

    A prism coupler is a prism designed to couple a substantial fraction of the power contained in a beam of light (e.g., a laser beam) into a thin film to be used as a waveguide without the need for precision polishing of the edge of the film, without the need for sub-micrometer alignment precision of the beam and the edge of the film, and without the need for matching the numerical aperture of ...

  9. Four prism dioptre reflex test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_prism_dioptre_reflex_test

    4 dioptre prism, either loose or prism bar; Bright lighting conditions; Method of assessment. As it is an objective test, few instructions are required to be given to the patient. The patient is asked to fixate on a target while the examiner places a 4 prism dioptre base-out prism over the patient's eye, observing the response of the fellow eye.
