Topography becomes more important in quality assurance for manufacturing. This regards the characterization of macro-sized to medium optics and the optimization of a manufacturing process using a coherence scanning interferometer, e.g., the measurement of touch points that directly relate to the pol
Renewable energy generation on its own is incapable of consistently meeting the energy demand and if this problem is not solved, a transition to the renewable-dominated energy sector is impossible. This article discusses the technology that can aid this transition in the future.
