Light diffraction and interference are investigated. Unit 6 Segment H: Light: Diffraction and Interference Light diffraction and interference are investigated as we observe light going through single ...

Increasingly complex applications such as artificial intelligence require ever more powerful and power-hungry computers to run. Optical computing is a proposed solution to increase speed and power ...

F. H. SANDERS 1, in a recent note in these columns, has reported excellent agreement between our theory and his experimental results. His note, however, calls for a statement from us clarifying the ...

A U.K.-Portuguese research group is proposing a new solar cell design based on diffraction gratings – optical components that split and diffract light into several beams. They claim this could lead to ...

SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, Vol. 48, No. 1 (Feb., 1988), pp. 1-37 (37 pages) We derive an asymptotic partial differential equation which describes the diffraction of a weakly nonlinear high ...

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Vol. 209, No. 1096 (Oct. 8, 1951), pp. 81-96 (16 pages) The radio waves from 'radio stars' may suffer ...

Twisted photonics: A bilayer of molybdenum trioxide supports highly unusual light propagation along straight paths when the two layers are rotated with respect to each other at the photonic magic ...

A variety of ultrathin nanomechanical diffraction gratings that have been fashioned from the “wonder material” graphene have been created by an international team of researchers. The team wanted to ...
