optical diffraction
11Optical axis gratings — (OAGs) are gratings of optical axis of a birefringent material. In OAGs, the birefringence of the material is constant, while the direction of optical axis is periodically modulated in a fixed direction. In this way they are different from the… …
12Optical superresolution — is a general term for optical techniques which operate beyond the normal diffraction limit. See also Super resolution Superoscillation Categories: Physical opticsPhysics stubsOptics stubs …
13Diffraction grating — A very large reflecting diffraction grating. In optics, a diffraction grating is an optical component with a periodic structure, which splits and diffracts light into several beams travelling in different directions. The directions of these beams …
14Diffraction-limited system — Memorial to Ernst Karl Abbe, who approximated the diffraction limit of a microscope as , where d is the resolvable feature size, λ is the wavelength of light, n is the index of refraction of the medium being imaged in, and θ (depicted as α in the …

17Optical resolution — This article is about optical resolution in optics. For the method of separating enantiomers in chemistry, see Chiral resolution. Optical resolution describes the ability of an imaging system to resolve detail in the object that is being imaged.… …
18Optical vortex — An optical vortex (also known as a screw dislocation or phase singularity) is a zero of an optical field, a point of zero intensity. Research into the properties of vortices has thrived since a comprehensive paper by Nye and Berry, in 1974,[1]… …
