Abstract: Diffractive lens (DLs) computational imaging promises lightweight infrared imaging. However, it is still challenging to accurately obtain the degradation of DLs computational imaging systems ...

Diffractive diffusers and beamsplitters for high-power laser applications — in stock and ready to ship. HOLO/OR Diffractive Diffusers precisely convert collimated beams into square or circular ...

Many of the world’s largest telescopes — whether on the ground, in the air, or in space — use mirrors as their primary optical element. Mirrors have the advantage of being flat and lightweight, ...

Super-slim night-vision tech could be within reach thanks to a new material breakthrough that can capture infrared and visible light at the same time. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

Using 3D printing and porous silicon, researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have developed compact, visible wavelength achromats that are essential for miniaturized and ...

SAN FRANCISCO — Multifocal diffractive lenses can be used with confidence in patients who have previously undergone laser vision correction, according to a speaker at the American Academy of ...

As a promising candidate for next-generation mobile platform, mixed reality (MR) such as Apple Vision Pro and Meta Quest Pro (both are passthrough virtual reality headsets) has potential to ...

Nautilus Space Observatory unit telescopes are launched in a compact configuration and deployed in orbit. An inflatable structure deploys the 8.5m-diameter diffractive lenses to the front of the ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Twelve years ago at the AECOS meeting, a program chair asked the audience if in 10 years we would be able to ...

Thin, simple diffractive lenses are notorious for their blurry images, so they have never been used in astronomical observatories. But if you could improve their clarity, using diffractive lenses ...
