Which color of light has the shortest wavelength? Violet light has wavelengths ranging from approximately 380 to 450 nanometers. As you move from violet to other colors in the visible spectrum, such as indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, and finally red, the wavelengths of these colors progressively increase.
Laser safety is the safe design, use and implementation of lasers to minimize the risk of laser accidents, injury to the eyes or skin, or damage to property.
Fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) are a specific type of Bragg grating that are written into optical fibers and used to separate different wavelengths of light and measure physical parameters in optical communications and sensing systems.
A laser q-switch, also known as a Q-switched laser, is a type of laser that is designed to produce very short and high-energy pulses of light.
These devices use the principles of physics to measure distances with exceptional accuracy and precision. But, how do they work, and what types are available in the market?
Laser guide stars are artificial stars created by shining a laser beam into the atmosphere. The laser beam ionizes the atoms in the atmosphere, creating a bright, artificial star that can be used as a reference point for the telescope’s adaptive optics system.
Laser cooling is a technique used to lower the temperature of a system or material using lasers, often close to absolute zero (-273.15°C).
Cataracts, the clouding of the natural lens in the eye, are a leading cause of vision loss worldwide. Traditionally,…
Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscopy (SLO) is a cutting-edge imaging technique used to examine the retina and other structures in the eye.
Pulse compression gratings are optical devices used to modify the temporal characteristics of a light pulse.
