  • Optical Coherence - Definition and Applications
    Article - 6 May 2014
    Optical coherence is associated with interference effects of light. A field of light is said to be coherent when the electric field values at different locations are in a fixed phase.
  • Birefringence - Definition and Applications
    Article - 1 May 2014
    Optical birefringence is an inherent property of a material that causes double refraction of a ray of light resulting in polarization of the light wave.
  • What is a Neon Lamp?
    Article - 6 May 2014
