The wave nature of light manifests itself in diffraction, which hampers attempts to determine the location of molecules. Clever use of microscopic techniques might now be circumventing the ...

X-ray diffraction to obtain high-resolution maps of intra-granular stress in the sandstone. By combining stress mapping with ...

Diffraction is a classic optical phenomenon accounting for light propagation. The efficient calculation of diffraction is of significant value towards the real-time prediction of light fields. The ...

Advanced light microscopy techniques have come into their own — and are giving scientists a new understanding of human biology and what goes wrong in disease ...

As with most negative-index phenomena, the key to producing the near-field refocusing effect is to develop the metamaterial. Intrigued by the prospect of beating the diffraction limit, Anthony Grbic ...

So what about using diffraction with infrared light? Yes, that would be cool, but we can't really see infrared (well, there is a body hack for this ). Even though we can't see infrared, most video ...

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 ...

Diffraction gratings are available as thin plastic film with one side that is chock full of microscopic ridges, and the way light interacts with these ridges results in an iridescent, ...

X-ray diffraction methods have become established in these applications. Below we discuss the role x-ray diffraction plays in analyzing drugs in two different settings- security and pharmaceuticals.

Choose your diffraction grating. I used the double-axis grating (13,500 lines per inch) linked in the ingredients list, since it will give you the colors at more angles than a single-axis ...
