The Photoelectric Effect

... Monochromatic light (in this case produced by a broadband mercury lamp passing through a wavelengthselective interference filter) is incident on the cathode K of the photocell. This is typically made from potassium. This causes electrons to be liberated from the cathode, which then flow to ground vi ...

... The same holds true in confocal fluorescence microscopy. Optical sectioning is not obtained in the illumination process, but by discriminating against the out of focus fluorescence light with a pinhole in front of the detector. Hence, most of the light emitted by the specimen does not reach the dete ...

... Wavefront sensing is a well known technology for studying the aberrations of a light-beam. In most applications, only the lower-order aberrations (like spherical aberration or coma) are considered, because the lower the aberration order is, the stronger is the effect on the beam [12] [13]. As a cons ...

Harold Hopkins (physicist)

Harold Horace Hopkins FRS (1918–1994) was a renowned British physicist. His Wave Theory of Aberrations, (published by Oxford University Press 1950), is central to all modern optical design and provides the mathematical analysis which enables the use of computers to create the wealth of high quality lenses available today. In addition to his theoretical work, his many inventions are in daily use throughout the world. These include zoom lenses, coherent fibre-optics and more recently the rod-lens endoscopes which 'opened the door' to modern key-hole surgery. He was the recipient of many of the world's most prestigious awards and was twice nominated for a Nobel Prize. His citation on receiving the Rumford Medal from the Royal Society in 1984 stated: ""In recognition of his many contributions to the theory and design of optical instruments, especially of a wide variety of important new medical instruments which have made a major contribution to clinical diagnosis and surgery.""
