The term laser is an acronym for ' Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation '. [95] Laser light is usually spatially coherent, which means that the light either is emitted in a narrow, low-divergence beam, or can be converted into one with the help of optical components such as lenses.
Optics is the science of light and its interaction with matter.. Optics is a broad subject area. Much of the content is covered in subcategories. Many basic concepts are covered in Category:Geometrical optics, in which light is considered as if it were composed of rays.

Optics Express is a biweekly peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Optica.It was established in 1997. [1] The journal reports on scientific and technology innovations in all aspects of optics and photonics.
Testing fiber optic connector assemblies falls into two general categories: factory testing and field testing. Factory testing is sometimes statistical, for example, a process check. A profiling system may be used to ensure the overall polished shape is correct, and a good quality optical microscope to check for blemishes.
