It is expected that advances in optics will revolutionise the 21st century as they began doing in the last quarter of the 20th. Such fields as communications, materials science, computing and medicine are leaping forward based on developments in optics. This series presents research on optics and lasers from researchers spanning the globe.
This new book gathers leading research from throughout the world.
William T. Arkin. set of images is captured by a CCD camera. By processing these images, the object shape is recovered. The shape information is extracted from an image by detecting the behaviour of the position of the laser line in the ...
Optics and photonics technologies are ubiquitous: they are responsible for the displays on smart phones and computing devices, optical fiber that carries the information in the internet, advanced precision manufacturing, enhanced defense ...
This book is a collection of contributions by renowned scientists in the optical fibre technology field, covering a wide range of recent progress pertaining to various topics such as special optical fibres, non-linear effects in optical ...

The tera-watt class high-power femtosecond laser offers a completely new tool for material processing because the constituent atoms and molecules experience a very high electric field of optical frequency. The associated force is of a ...
Laser Radar considers the potential of active EO technologies to create surprise; i.e., systems that use a source of visible or infrared light to interrogate a target in combination with sensitive detectors and processors to analyze the ...
