To a non-physicist, an "atomic beam collimator" may sound like a phaser firing mystical particles. That might not be the worst metaphor to introduce a technology that researchers have now miniaturized ...

Atoms (blue) shoot out of parallel barrels of an atom beam collimator. Lasers (pink) can manipulate the exiting atoms for desired effects. Atomic beam collimators are mostly found in physics labs, ...

Optical Surfaces Ltd has developed a new approach, using a series of pre-aligned beam collimator sub-assemblies, for Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) testing of large diameter military optical ...

Optical Surfaces Ltd. reports on a technological development that has allowed them to produce a novel athermalized beam collimator design that delivers stable high performance across a wide ...

April 23 (UPI) --Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have managed to build a cascading silicon peashooter -- a smaller, more precise atomic beam collimator. The technology could be used ...

What prompted the MIT team to research and develop a nanoscale "flashlight"? Details on the metasurface that was designed to create the source-beam collimator. How a DNN, CNN, and machine learning ...

(Nanowerk News) To a non-physicist, an "atomic beam collimator" may sound like a phaser firing mystical particles. That might not be the worst metaphor to introduce a technology that researchers have ...

MTF is a technique, trusted by optical designers, for objectively evaluating the image-forming capability of military optical systems. As reflective beam collimators can be used to replicate a target ...
