diffraction-limited beam
1Diffraction — Computer generated intensity pattern formed on a screen by diffraction from a square aperture …
2Diffraction topography — (short: topography ) is an X ray imaging technique based on Bragg diffraction. Diffraction topographic images ( topographs ) record the intensity profile of a beam of X rays (or, sometimes, neutrons) diffracted by a crystal. A topograph thus… …
3Beam-powered propulsion — is a class of spacecraft propulsion mechanisms that use energy beamed to the spacecraft from a remote power plant. Most designs are rocket engines where the energy is provided by the beam, and is used to superheat propellant that then provides… …
4Laser beam profiler — A laser beam profiler captures, displays, and records the spatial intensity profile of a laser beam at a particular plane transverse to the beam propagation path. Since there are many types of lasers ultraviolet, visible, infrared, continuous… …
5Electron beam lithography — (often abbreviated as e beam lithography) is the practice of scanning a beam of electrons in a patterned fashion across a surface covered with a film (called the resist),cite book |last= McCord |first=M. A. |coauthors=M. J. Rooks |title=… …
6Coherent diffraction imaging — A diffraction pattern of a gold nanocrystal formed from using a nano area beam of coherent X rays. This reciprocal space diffraction image was taken by Ian Robinson s Group to be used in the reconstruction of a real space coherent x ray… …
7Electron diffraction — is a technique used to study matter by firing electrons at a sample and observing the resulting interference pattern. This phenomenon occurs due to the wave particle duality, which states that a particle of matter (in this case the incident… …
8Neutron diffraction — Science with Neutrons Foundations Neutron temperature Flux · Radiation  …
9Powder diffraction — is a scientific technique using X ray, neutron, or electron diffraction on powder or microcrystalline samples for structural characterization of materials. [B.D. Cullity Elements of X ray Diffraction Addison Wesley Mass. 1978] Explanation Ideally …
10Bessel beam — A Bessel beam is a field of electromagnetic radiation whose amplitude is described by a Bessel function. A true Bessel beam is non diffractive. This means that as it propagates, it does not diffract and spread out; this is in contrast to the… …
