  2. Beam splitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_splitter

    A diffractive beam splitter can generate either a 1-dimensional beam array (1xN) or a 2-dimensional beam matrix (MxN), depending on the diffractive pattern on the element. The diffractive beam splitter is used with monochromatic light such as a laser beam, and is designed for a specific wavelength and angle of separation between output beams.

  3. Pellicle mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pellicle_mirror

    Splitting the beam allows its use for multiple purposes simultaneously. The thinness of the mirror practically eliminates beam or image doubling due to a non-coincident weak second reflection from the nominally non-reflecting surface, a problem with mirror-type beam splitters. [1] The name pellicle is a diminutive of pellis, a skin or film.

  4. Fiber-optic splitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-optic_splitter

    The FBT splitter is one of the most common. FBT splitters are widely accepted and used in passive networks, especially for instances where the split configuration is smaller (1×2, 1×4, 2×2, etc.). [1] The PLC is a more recent technology. PLC splitters offer a better solution for larger applications.

  5. Multifaceted reflector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifaceted_reflector

    These lamps use a bi-pin connector for power: 12-volt MR11 bulbs usually use a GU4 base, and 12-volt MR16 bulbs usually use a GU5.3 base. The common 12-volt MR16 lamps, therefore, require a ferromagnetic or electronic transformer —sometimes misnamed as a ballast —to convert the 120- or 230-volt mains voltage to the extra-low voltage ...

  6. Jones calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jones_calculus

    The Jones matrices are operators that act on the Jones vectors defined above. These matrices are implemented by various optical elements such as lenses, beam splitters, mirrors, etc. Each matrix represents projection onto a one-dimensional complex subspace of the Jones vectors. The following table gives examples of Jones matrices for polarizers:

  7. Bi-pin lamp base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-pin_lamp_base

    The suffix after the G indicates the pin spread; the G dates to the use of Glass for the original bulbs. GU usually also indicates that the lamp provides a mechanism for physical support by the luminaire: in some cases, each pin has a short section of larger diameter at the end (sometimes described as a "peg" rather than a "pin" [2]); the socket allows the bulb to lock into place by twisting ...

  8. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

    The 50 A (and 5-50) receptacles look like bigger versions of the 5-15 A. 6-15R and 6-20R receptacles are usually manufactured on the same assembly line as "Industrial" or "Commercial" grade 5-15R and 5-20R receptacles, with all 4 receptacles sharing the same "triple wipe" T contacts behind the varying faceplates.

  9. Multi mode interferometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi_mode_interferometer

    Diagram of a 1x2 Multi Mode Interferometer, with one input and two outputs. A multi-mode interferometer (MMI), also known as a multimode interference coupler, is a micro-scale structure in which light waves can travel, such that the optical power is split or combined in a predictable way.
