For thick witness samples mounted at high angles, it can become nearly impossible to get a reasonably accurate transmission measurement (a witness sample is typically a small, flat plate of glass that is coated along with the rest of the components, serving as a testable e ...

Since the self-images resulting from the MMI are more closely packed in the taper region, it is expected that when stretching the tapered SMSs, the shift in the pattern and thus the change in the output light field will be greater. This should in principle lead to much larger ...

Additionally, if λ2 is insignificant, which it can be, then setting |A| = 0 will produce a complete x- to z-plane emittance exchange. Note that λ2 ≠ 0 unless all Aij ...

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"".
