The ESIS-II mission aims to capture high-speed “snapshot” images of the Sun’s transition region and corona. To achieve this, ...

Abstract: This paper reports an optical cantilever that can measure displacement with high resolution by using an interference pattern and the sampling moiré method. The proposed cantilever has a ...

A wide mode-hop-free and narrow-linewidth tunable laser diode source employing a Littman-Metcalf configuration with a diffraction grating is developed. We conducted a series of experiments to evaluate ...

Scientists have created the first neutron 'Airy beam,' which has unusual capabilities that ordinary neutron beams do not. The achievement could enhance neutron-based techniques for investigating the ...

A diffractive optic creates two DUV beams, which are focused and interfered on a sample surface (diamond) using a 4f imaging system to generate a microscopic sinusoidal excitation profile. Credit: ...

A new course offered this past spring, Sense & Sensibility & Science @UChicago: Scientific Thinking in a Democracy, highlights how scientific reasoning and tools can help both policy novices and ...
