Recently, a hexagonal phase has been reported in high carbon steels in several studies. Here, we show that the electron microscopy results used in these studies were erroneously interpreted. The extra-spots in the diffraction patterns and the odd contrasts ...
The optical domain presents potential avenues for enhancing both computing and communication due to its inherentproperties of bandwidth, parallelism, and energy efficiency. This research focuses on harnessing 3-Dimensional (3D)diffractive optics for novel ...
We present and discuss Talbot mask-aligner lithography, relying on a continuous wave laser emitting at 193nm for the illumination. In this source, a diode laser at 772nm is amplified by a tapered amplifier in master-oscillator power-amplifier configuration ...
In this work we demonstrate the advantages of investigating diffractive optical elements in the phase domain. In this regime we can detect features that are not restrained by the diffraction limit and relate them to the geometrical and optical properties o ...
Here we present a new approach to diffraction imaging of amyloid fibrils, combining a freestanding graphene support and single nanofocused X-ray pulses of femtosecond duration from an X-ray free-electron laser. Due to the very low background scattering fro ...
The generation of wide-angle diffraction patterns can be done in different ways using either thin diffractive optical elements with small features sizes or arrays of microoptics with large optical paths that are thick diffractive optical elements. Our aim ...
Diffractive optical elements with a large diffraction angle require feature sizes down to sub-wavelength dimensions, which require a rigorous electromagnetic computational model for calculation. However, the computational optimization of these diffractive ...
The present disclosure concerns a holographic system or device comprising at least one optical guiding element (100) configured to redirect light incident from a light source (101) to a target interference plane (103), wherein the optical guiding element i ...
Microsphere-assisted microscopy allows the limit of the diffraction of light to overcome while being non-invasive, full-field, label-free, and easy-to-implement. However, the observation of translucent samples remains difficult using a classical bright-fie ...
Diffractive optical elements (DOEs) consist of surface reliefs with dimensions in the micrometer range and nanometer precision. Two technologies dominate: Elements replicated in plastic and directly microfabricated elements in fused silica. Plastic DOEs ar ...
