WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a new way to apply antireflective (AR) coatings to 3D printed multi-lens systems as small as 600 microns in diameter. Because these coatings help minimize light ...

Researchers have shown that consumer-grade 3D printers and low-cost materials can be used to produce multi-element optical ...

An automated computational approach to the optical lens design of imaging systems promises to provide optimal solutions without human intervention, slashing the time and cost usually required. The ...

I received my PHD in this field and have built several flat lens prototypes using both metalens and gradient index technologies. While metalenses are a promising new field, I doubt they'll ever see ...

Researchers have developed a new type of lens that uses a spiral-shaped surface to maintain a clear focus at different distances in varying light conditions. WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers have developed a new way to apply antireflective (AR) coatings to 3D printed multi-lens systems as small as 600 microns in diameter. Because these coatings help minimize ...

When viewing biological samples with a microscope, the light beam is disturbed if the lens of the objective is in a different medium than the sample. For example, when looking at a watery sample with ...
