Wide-field time-of-flight measurements of highly scattering media
Optics Letters
|December 15, 2023
Abstract:
We present a setup that makes use of a time-resolved single-photon camera to determine the scattering parameters of media. The measurement is realized in a non-contact way, both for the illumination laser and the detection. By fitting the time-of-flight acquired distributions at different spatial positions with the diffusion equation, we retrieve the reduced scattering coefficients of a highly diffusive isotropic reference media for wavelengths in the range from 540 to 840 nm.

Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Instrumentation
Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is the common plasma source used in atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), a technique that detects and analyzes various elements in a sample. This method is often called inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES).
There are three main types of inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) instruments: sequential, simultaneous multichannel, and Fourier transform instruments, with the latter being less commonly used.

Electronic Distance Measuring Instruments
Electronic Distance Measuring Instruments (EDMs) are essential tools in modern surveying, offering precise distance measurements by emitting electromagnetic signals and calculating the time required for these signals to travel to a target and return. Two primary types of signals are used in EDMs — light waves and microwaves — each suited to specific environmental and distance requirements. Light-wave-based EDMs utilize either infrared or laser light, providing high accuracy over short distances...
