optics

Producing a rugged lens or optical system optimized to your environmentally challenging application is a complex task

Recent discovery is an important step toward control of nanolight, which is light that can access the smallest length scales imaginable

Operating at f/3.6, the Model 192-001 provides good image resolution and minimum geometric distortion from 400 to 750 nm

One of the biggest advantages of using a zoom lens is that it allows you to change focal lengths without changing your lens

Scientists develop a fluorescence "lifetime" microscopy technique that uses frequency combs and no mechanical parts to observe dynamic biological phenomena

Researchers invent an optical convolutional neural network accelerator for machine learning

Benefiting from a lightweight design and new assembly technique, the LW-series of beam collimators uniquely combine high stability, high performance, and short delivery time—all at a market-competitive price

Rice University scientists discover delayed phenomenon in carbon nanotubes

The so-called reflection matrix microscope works without any fluorescent labeling and without depending on the target's structures

The open-source system from a 3D printer delivers high-resolution images like commercial microscopes that cost hundreds of times the price
