... named SALSA. This device implemented a fast switching liquid crystal polarizing filter to separate polarized light onto a 782 x 582 pixel detector operating in the 400 to 700 nanometer range. The data were then analyzed for polarimetric signatures by isolating the disturbances from the background an ...

In principle, the phase difference in the interferometer as a function of xc and ␻ can be measured so that any spatial phase difference introduced by the interferometer is also removed. In practice, because an interferometer onl ...

We demonstrated that when working with refractive index mismatch-free and very low absorption conditions, the light could be focused deeply inside the material, allowing a 3D optical manipulation. We then demons ...

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.""
