Understand Noise At The Sub-Nanometer Scale | By James F. MacKay, Mad City Labs, Inc. | Every nanopositioner has a small amount of uncertainty in its position that contributes noise to a measurement. It's important to understand what position noise is and where it comes from in order to know just how accurate the nanopositioner is. |

Specifying Lenses For Megapixel Cameras | By Schneider Optics | To understand how lenses affect the performance of imaging systems, it is necessary to grasp the physics behind diffraction, lens aperture, focal length, and the wavelength of light. Other design limitations also restrict the optical capabilities of a lens, even before manufacÂturing tolerances are considered. |
