Intra-cavity flat-top beam generation.

29 Aug 2009 We present the analytical and numerical analyses of two new resonator systems for generating flat-top-like beams. Both approaches lead to closed form expressions for the required cavity optics, but differ substantially in the design technique, with ... Read more...

Digital dental photography. Part 7: extra-oral set-ups.

6 Aug 2009 This part of our series specifically addresses extra-oral dental photography consisting of portraiture and dental laboratory pictures. Portraiture, which is achieved using three types of illumination, natural daylight, bi-lateral camera mounted ... Read more...

Viewing angle enhanced integral imaging display using two elemental image masks.

Aug 2009 A viewing angle enhanced integral imaging display using two elemental image masks is proposed. In our new method, rays emitted from the elemental images are directed by two masks into corresponding lenses. Due to the elemental image guiding of the ... Read more...
