Measurement of Surface Quality 1. Lyot Test 2. FECO 3. Nomarski

... The path difference between the two beams can be adjusted by laterally translating the Wollaston prism. When the axes of the polarizer and analyzer are parallel and the prism is centered, the path lengths are equal and white light is seen for a perfect test surface with no tilt. When the polarizer a ...

... The  sign between kx and t determines the direction the wave travels along the x-axis. + wave travels to left (in the direction of decreasing x) - wave travels to right (in the direction of increasing x) The phase angle  shifts the cosine or sine function left or right. This can be used to match ...

Thomas Young (scientist)



Thomas Young (13 June 1773 – 10 May 1829) was an English polymath and physician. Young made notable scientific contributions to the fields of vision, light, solid mechanics, energy, physiology, language, musical harmony, and Egyptology. He ""made a number of original and insightful innovations""in the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs (specifically the Rosetta Stone) before Jean-François Champollion eventually expanded on his work. He was mentioned by, among others, William Herschel, Hermann von Helmholtz, James Clerk Maxwell, and Albert Einstein. Young has been described as ""The Last Man Who Knew Everything"".
