A novel optical detection system for chromatography applications
In this work we describe the design of a confocal microscope based optical system which can be used for two types of miniaturized fluid-chromatographic experiments: first of all for the study of shear...

AFM benchmark for the profile characterisation of subwavelength diffractive elements within the EC Network of Excellence on Micro-Optics (NEMO)
The round robin "measurement of subwavelength diffractive elements" tackles the metrology problems related to the measurement of diffraction gratings by AFM. It aims at quantifying the absolute precis...

Array of fundamental Gaussian beams located on the surface of a hyperboloid of revolution forms a regular net of optical vortices whereas a resulting field represents a singular Bessel-Gaussian beam. A total topological charge of the beam is defined by a phase matching in the beam's array. Such simple key inferences were drawn from our theoretical analysis of light scattering with a stack of optical wedges. We experimentally found out that a Gaussian beam diffracted by a system of dielectrical wedges carried over central-positioned optical vortex, whose topological charge was equal to a number of wedges in the stack.
