Light pipes are optical components that are typically used to increase the uniformity of a light source or to direct light.

Edmund Optics experts, in partnership with additional industry experts, will discuss glass materials and coating technologies, their fabrication, and how to truly maximize their power in your systems.

Optical Engineer Andrew Fisher explains how you can see the "invisible" light, or infrared light, from your own TV remote.

Light sheet fluorescence microscopy uses a 2D laser sheet to illuminate a thin slice of the sample and excite fluorescence, reducing phototoxicity and damage.

The polarization state of a laser source is important for many different applications.

Understanding group delay dispersion (GDD) is critical for knowing how ultrafast laser pulses will be stretched or compressed.

The industry standard method for quantifying reflectivity does not tell the whole story

Overspecifying optical losses in laser systems will not further improve your performance or reliability, but it could cost you additional money and/or time.

Beam Conditioning Optics for UV, IR, and Broadband Lasers

Learn the key parameters that must be considered to ensure you laser application is successful. Common terminology will be established for these parameters.
