Chirped pulse amplification ( CPA) is a technique for amplifying an ultrashort laser pulse up to the petawatt level, with the laser pulse being stretched out temporally and spectrally, then amplified, and then compressed again. [1] The stretching and compression uses devices that ensure that the different color components of the pulse travel ...
Prism adaptation. Prism adaptation is a sensory-motor adaptation that occurs after the visual field has been artificially shifted laterally or vertically. It was first introduced by Hermann von Helmholtz in late 19th-century Germany as supportive evidence for his perceptual learning theory (Helmholtz, 1909/1962). [1]
Description. Littrow (optical) prisms typically have the shape of a (geometric) prism with a 30°/60°/90° right triangular base, [1] [2] equivalent to half an equilateral triangle. Typically, they are coated with a reflective film coating on the surface opposite the 60° angle. This design was devised by Otto von Littrow (1843—1864).
Laser-ultrasonics uses lasers to generate and detect ultrasonic waves. [1] It is a non-contact technique used to measure materials thickness, detect flaws and carry out materials characterization. The basic components of a laser-ultrasonic system are a generation laser, a detection laser and a detector.
A laser light source provides a light ray. The laser source has a transverse field characteristic with a central null intensity region. A mirror transmits a beam of light to a detector. The detector is positioned to be centered on the light ray and responds to the light's intensity to provide an intensity signal.
A Glan–Foucault prism (also called a Glan–air prism) is a type of prism which is used as a polarizer. It is similar in construction to a Glan–Thompson prism, except that two right-angled calcite prisms are spaced with an air gap instead of being cemented together. [1] Total internal reflection of p - polarized light at the air gap means ...
Corrective lenses. A corrective lens is a lens worn on or before the eye. They are used to treat myopia, hypermetropia, astigmatism, and presbyopia .
Beam expanders are optical devices that take a collimated beam of light and expand its width (or, used in reverse, reduce its width). In laser physics they are used either as intracavity or extracavity elements. They can be telescopic in nature or prismatic. Generally prismatic beam expanders use several prisms and are known as multiple-prism ...
