LEGO! It’s a fun toy that is popular around the world. What you may not realize is that it’s also made to incredibly high ...

The instrument we've developed in my lab is designed to deliver precision optical corrections directly to the main mirrors of the LIGO interferometers. Our instrument is designed to sit just ...

By combining the light from both mirrors, the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer makes observations with significantly higher resolution than would be achievable with just one mirror.

A team of physicists, led by Jonathan Richardson from the University of California, Riverside, has made a breakthrough in ...

Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to fully demonstrate its potential — the low-quality mirror didn’t cooperate with his homebrew interferometer. He was, however, able to use a dial indicator to ...

The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory ... light without forming a traditional image, unlike lenses or mirrors used in cameras and telescopes. They are often used to control ...

A source beam is collimated in a Twyman-Green laser interferometer and subsequently split by a beam splitter. The “reference beam” is guided toward a high-quality reference mirror, and the “test beam” ...

The general theory of the subject is developed at some length, and a variety of interferometer devices, with mirror, ocular, and collimator micrometers, are instanced. As the achromatic fringes ...

The Verifire™ Laser Interferometer provides flatness metrology and surface form of optical components and wavefront of optical systems and subassemblies like windows, lenses, mirrors, prisms—and even ...
