Sommario/riassunto

This Spotlight gives a general overview of the durability of optical coatings and various durability tests referring to available civilian and military standards and specifications. It will allow a quick detection of the coating testing durability requirements and test conditions in MIL-Specs and other standards or specifications according to requirements defined in the relevant drawings or coating specifications. Intended for optical designers, this Spotlight is also useful for optical coating inspectors.

Sommario/riassunto

Laboratory Imaging and Photography: Best Practices for Photomicrography and More is the definitive guide to the production of scientific images. Inside, the reader will find an overview of the theory and practice of laboratory photography, along with useful approaches to choosing equipment, handling samples, and working with microscopic subjects. Drawing from over 150 years of combined experience in the field, the authors outline methods of properly capturing, processing and archiving the images that are essential to scientific research. Also included are chapters on applied close-up photography, artificial light photography and the optics used in today’s laboratory environment, with detailed entries on light, confocal and scanning electron microscopy. A lab manual for the digital era, this peerless reference book explains how to record visual data accurately in an industry where a photograph can serve to establish a scientific fact. Key features include:  Over 200 full-color photographs and illustrations  A condensed history of scientific photography  Tips on using the Adobe Creative Suite for scientific applications  A cheat sheet of best practices  Methods used in computational photography
