Design and performances of an optical metrology system to test position and tilt accuracy of fiber positioners

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Mohamed Bouri, Luzius Gregor Kronig, Philipp Hörler

This paper describes the design of an optical metrology system for fiber positioners. The system can be used for accurate calibration and verification of fiber positioners with SCARA-like RR planar kinematics. It is capable of measuring accurately the abso ...

Roadmap on optical rogue waves and extreme events

Krassimir Panajotov, Yiqi Zhang

The pioneering paper 'Optical rogue waves' by Solli et al (2007 Nature 450 1054) started the new subfield in optics. This work launched a great deal of activity on this novel subject. As a result, the initial concept has expanded and has been enriched by n ...
