Backward wave oscillator — A backward wave oscillator (BWO), also called carcinotron (a trade name for tubes manufactured by CSF, now Thales) or backward wave tube, is a vacuum tube that is used to generate microwaves up to the terahertz range. It belongs to the traveling… … Wikipedia
Laser beam profiler — A laser beam profiler captures, displays, and records the spatial intensity profile of a laser beam at a particular plane transverse to the beam propagation path. Since there are many types of lasers ultraviolet, visible, infrared, continuous… … Wikipedia
Multiple-prism grating laser oscillator — Multiple prism grating laser oscillators,[1] or MPG laser oscillators, use multiple prism beam expansion to illuminate a diffraction grating mounted either in Littrow configuration or grazing incidence configuration. Originally, these narrow… … Wikipedia
Optical parametric oscillator — Infrared optical parametric oscillator An optical parametric oscillator (OPO) is a parametric oscillator which oscillates at optical frequencies. It converts an input laser wave (called pump ) into two output waves of lower frequency (ωs,ωi) by… … Wikipedia
Tesla's oscillator — is a mechanical oscillator conceived of and invented by Nikola Tesla in 1898. It is also referred to as the Earthquake Machine. The machine which Tesla tested was small, around seven inches long, and weighing only one or two pounds; something you … Wikipedia
Walker (BEAM) — In BEAM robotics, a walker is a walking machine that has a driven mode of locomotion by intermittent ground contacting legs. They usually possess 1 to 12 motors. (ed. motors numbering above 3 are uncommon) Muscle wired walkers ultilizes Nitinol… … Wikipedia
