Title: Displacement Scale Based on Speckles
Author: Farsad, Mahsa
Date Created: 2015
Description: Speckle patterns are complex intensity distributions, which occur when an optically rough surface is illuminated with a coherent light. The speckle phenomenon was known to be troublesome when the laser was first introduced, but later it was discov...
