Synopsis: Domenii: Photonics & laser: Photonics & laser colaterale: Wavelength: Short wavelength:

when organisms absorb high-energy short wavelength light (such as ultraviolet light) then re-emit that light at a longer wavelength.

although the basic technique was developed using short wavelength"hard"X rays that have difficulty distinguishing two closely related polymers,

short wavelength light sources fill the critical need for metrology to bridge this gap. As an example,

Rectennas, developed in the 1960s and 1970s, have functioned at very short wavelengths of 10 m. Since then,

Due to this short wavelength, it is possible to visualize even single atoms in diffraction experiments. If such electrons meet a molecule or atom,

they are diffracted into specific directions due to their short wavelength. This way they generate an interference pattern at the detector from

To redirect the short wavelengths of visible light requires tiny structures so instead early designs deflected longer wavelengths like microwaves.

X-rays have very short wavelengths of only about 1 to 0. 01 nanometres (nm), compared to 400 to 800 nm for visible light.

The components with longer wavelengths travel faster than the short wavelength components. Inside the fibre however there is a carefully designed nanostructure

which allows short wavelengths to travel through the fibre faster than longer ones. The combination of these two opposing effects leads to a compression of the laser pulse.
