A nanofabricated silicon template holds two independent multilayer Laue lenses with high precision for easy alignment to create a nano-focused X-ray beam. Scientists have developed a new type of lens ...

Increasing demands on the performance of optical systems require tighter mechanical and optical tolerances. Thus, it has become unfeasible – both technologically as well as financially – to manually ...

Scientists have developed a new type of lens that focuses an X-ray beam to nanometer levels. This is a scale smaller than a single virus. The monolithic 2-D multilayer Laue lenses (MLLs) can focus an ...

A new fortuitous alignment has allowed a cluster of galaxies to play a crucial role. Nicknamed the “carousel lens,” this unique gravitational lens reveals not one, but seven distant galaxies.

Full baffle and lens alignment assembly, designed to minimize stray light, mass, and size, and maximize optical performance. Sandia National Laboratories sponsored a project to create a new design for ...

“As we continue to improve the performance and availability of long range zoom systems, we find that more markets are opening to us,” said Angelique X. Irvin, CEO and President of Clear Align. “As new ...
