Optical Thin Films
SPIE 1996; US$ 59.50Practical, user-oriented reference for engineers who must incorporate and specify coatings for filters, antiglare effects, polarization, or other purposes in optical or electro-optical systems design. It focuses on preparation techniques and characteristics of commercially available products and provides information needed to determine what type of... more...
Field Guide to Atmospheric Optics
SPIE 2004; US$ 24.99The material in this Field Guide includes a review of classical Kolmogorov turbulence theory, Gaussian-beam waves in free space, and atmospheric effects on a propagating optical wave. These atmospheric effects have great importance in a variety of applications like imaging, free space optical communications, laser radar, and remote sensing. This Guide... more...
Modeling the Imaging Chain of Digital Cameras
SPIE 2010; US$ 43.35The process by which an image is formed, processed, and displayed can be conceptualized as a chain of physical events called the imaging chain. By mathematically modeling the imaging chain, we can gain insight into the relationship between the camera design parameters and the resulting image quality. The mathematical models can also be used to optimize... more...
Photon Transfer
SPIE 2007; US$ 51.85Photon Transfer is designed for a wide audience--from the novice to the advanced user already familiar with the method. For first-time users, the book's primary purpose is to give sufficient guidelines to accurately generate, calibrate, and understand imaging data products through the photon transfer method. The book contains more than 230 figures... more...
Principles of Lithography
SPIE 2011; US$ 80.75The publication of Principles of Lithography, Third Edition just five years after the previous edition is evidence of the quickly changing and exciting nature of lithography as applied to the production of integrated circuits and other micro- and nanoscale devices. This text is intended to serve as an introduction to the science of microlithography,... more...
Field Guide to Optical Lithography
SPIE 2006; US$ 24.99The material in this Field Guide is a distillation of material put together by Chris Mack over the past 20 years, including notes from his graduate-level lithography course at the University of Texas at Austin. This Field Guide details the lithography process, image formation, imaging onto a photoresist, photoresist chemistry, and lithography control... more...
Optical Imaging and Aberrations, Part I
SPIE 1999; US$ 73.10This book examines how aberrations arise in optical systems and how they affect optical wave propagation and imaging based on geometrical and physical optics. It focuses on concepts, physical insight, and mathematical simplicity, intended for students and professionals. Figures and drawings illustrate concepts and enhance readability. This book is... more...
Coherent Fields and Images in Remote Sensing
SPIE 2004; US$ 51.85Coherent fields and images can provide significant information about remote objects in a variety of practical ways. This volume considers several coherent phenomena, including the use of coherent remote sensing to obtain information about the dynamic parameters of remote objects, the use of Fourier telescopy for exact imaging of remote objects in a... more...
Confocal Microscopy and Multiphoton Excitation Microscopy
SPIE 2006; US$ 51.85This text guides you through the principles and practical techniques of confocal and multiphoton microscopy. It also describes the historical connections and parallel inventions that resulted in modern techniques of live cell imaging and their use in biology and medicine. You will find comparisons of different types of confocal and multiphoton microscopes,... more...
Fourier-Transform Spectroscopy Instrumentation Engineering
SPIE 2003; US$ 40.80Many applications today require the Fourier-transform (FT) spectrometer to perform close to its limitations, such as taking many quantitative measurements in the visible and in the near infrared wavelength regions. In such cases, the instrument should not be considered as a perfect "black box." Knowing where the limitations of performance... more...
