Waves close wavesVibrations that transfer energy from place to place without the transference of matter. - including sound and light - can be reflected at the boundary between two different materials.

Straight wave reflection from straight barriers, 80-231, approx 3 minutes Single straight pulses are reflected from a straight barrier placed parallel to the wave front, then at 35, 45 and 55 degrees.

McPherson (Chelmsford MA USA) is pleased to announce a new vacuum ultraviolet spectral test system VUV-STS. The new system measures reflectance as a function of angle of incidence. It measures optical ...

Schematic of a grazing incidence small and wide angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS/GIWAXS) experimental setup showing the incident (αi) and the scattered angles along the horizontal (2θf) and vertical (αf ...

Using thin films of dielectric materials in optical coatings have long been common practice in the glass and optics industries. For example, Bragg mirrors in laser cavities are formed using ...
