Doubly curved crystal X-ray optics provide intense focused monochromatic beams from laboratory X-ray tube sources. These optics are employed in crystallography and X-ray fluorescence systems and may find application to imaging. It is increasingly important to understand how optic defects impact performance for these systems. A simulation model was developed to assess the effects of misalignment...

Paraxial optics is sometimes known as the Gaussian optics. It is the simplest framework where optical systems are described. A great variety of textbooks in optics include specific chapters to the paraxial approximation of the geometrical optics. Other textbooks focused in geometrical optics propose that the paraxial treatment should be included as part of the first approach to the subject. The...

One of the recently considered applications of fiber optic, in their usage in building lighting systems. In this research, in order to reduce energy consumption, by transmission of sun light from the roof to the desired place (i.e. an office), the required standard luminance is produced. The main aims of this research are : 1. Reduction of energy consumption. 2. Making the place compatible with...

laser-tissue interaction is of great interest due to its significant application in biomedical optics in both diagnostic and treatment purposes. major aspects of the laser-tissue interaction which has to be considered in biomedical studies are the thermal properties of the tissue and the thermal changes caused by the interaction of light and tissue. in this review paper the effects of light on ...

today, lasers are widely used in biology and medicine, and the majority of healthcenters and hospitals utilize modern laser systems for diagnosis and therapy applications.researchers have introduced different medical applications for different lasers used in surgeries and other medical treatments. medical lasers can be categorized in both diagnosis and therapy branches. main difference between ...

It has been almost 100 years since Einstein formulated his special theory of relativity in 1905. He showed that the basic space–time symmetry is dictated by the Lorentz group. It is shown that this group of Lorentz transformations is not only applicable to special relativity, but also constitutes the scientific language for optical sciences. It is noted that coherent and squeezed states of ligh...
