The MAX3806 is a high-gain linear preamplifier for distance measurement applications using a laser beam. The device operates from a single +5.0V supply and converts current from an AC-coupled ...

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science has successfully developed a length measurement system that achieves a level of precision approaching the theoretical limit allowed by quantum ...

Large-aperture interferometers are important in the manufacturing and measurement of large-aperture optical elements, which play critical roles in the fields of optical precision manufacturing and ...

Primary performance data for passive fiber-optic devices is provided by spectral measurement of optical insertion loss (IL) and polarization-dependent loss (PDL). Often used to characterize optical ...

Size Matters: Measuring distances between molecules is no simple task, but a team of German researchers has developed a new method that could revolutionize biological research and possibly even impact ...

Measuring super smooth surfaces generally necessitates the use of optical metrology tools, but it is important to note that optical solutions are not all the same. The choice of metrology solution for ...
