High Precision Actuators with Closed-Loop Feedback Motor by Physik Instrumente by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Manufacturer legacy M-221–M-226 description: micrometer screw, non-rotating tip, servo motor, gearhead and motor-shaft feedback encoder. Technical-data table separates design resolution, minimum incremental motion, repeatability and backlash. The body's0.50mm/100/500 calculation is explicitly original ideal geometry, not a product specification or recommendation.
Manufacturer primary technical account, Three Components of VHF Radio Telemetry and Basic Radio Telemetry Techniques: transmitter, receiver, directional antenna and gain adjustment. No operational parameters or animal handling procedures reproduced.
Manufacturer technical account: Polarized Light Microscope Configuration and discussion of rotating-stage extinction/maximum intensity. No individual byline is inferred from an empty Contributing Authors heading.
Automatic Correction of Fluorescence Spectra for Primary and Secondary Inner-filter Effects (IFE) with Duetta by HORIBA by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Three-page manufacturer technical note. Page 1, Introduction and Figure 1: attenuation before the observation region and absorption of emitted light before detection. Equation 2 gives an absorbance-based correction; its applicability depends on geometry. Numerical model in the article is an explicitly derived centre-view approximation, not a reported experiment. Caption inconsistencies noted in the worker report; no disputed figure concentrations are used.
Official manufacturer explanation, How do I remove solvent Raman peaks from a fluorescence spectrum?: measure a solvent blank under the same conditions and subtract its spectrum. Used only for physical optical measurement, not the unrelated biological sections of this page.
Principles of fluorescence spectroscopy (4) - Notes on fluorescence measurements by JASCO by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Official manufacturer notes. Internal shielding effect and Figure 10: excitation spectra of dilute and concentrated solutions observed at emission 450 nm; concentration distorts the excitation spectrum. Spectral correction section distinguishes sample response from instrument response. Do not treat concentration quenching and optical shielding as the same mechanism.
Principles of fluorescence spectroscopy (3) - Instrument configuration by JASCO by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Manufacturer primary instrumentation description: excitation monochromator, sample, emission optics and detector; a right-angle detection arrangement separates emitted fluorescence from transmitted excitation light. Used for apparatus principles, not product comparisons.
Bell System Technical Journal 26(3),395–409 (1947), DOI 10.1002/j.1538-7305.1947.tb00902.x. Page395 abstract/introduction: coded PAM samples, binary-level count, experimental speech encoder/decoder.

Extraordinary optical transmission through sub-wavelength hole arrays by T. W. Ebbesen and others by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
T. W. Ebbesen, H. J. Lezec, H. F. Ghaemi, T. Thio and P. A. Wolff, Nature 391, 667–669 (1998), DOI 10.1038/35570. Page 667 and Figures 1–3: focused-ion-beam apertures in metal films, zero-order optical transmission and angle-dependent peaks.

What is the IRF and how to measure it in fluorescence spectroscopy? by PicoQuant by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Manufacturer technical support note, What is the IRF?, Why and when is it important to measure the IRF?, and measurement guidance: finite timing response, reconvolution and prompt scattering measurements.

Calculating Characteristics of Non-collinear Phase-matching in Uniaxial and Biaxial Crystals by N. Boeuf and others by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Original research draft hosted by NIST, dated 27 August 1999 on each page. The byline credits N. Boeuf and collaborators at the Optical Technology Division. Section I, printed p. 2, motivates correlated-pair metrology; section II.1, printed p. 3, equations 1–2 gives energy and wavevector matching. No later publication date inferred from this draft.
Instructions pratiques sur l'observation et la mesure des propriétés optiques appelées rotatoires by Jean-Baptiste Biot by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Original practical work on optical rotatory properties and applications. The Académie publication inventory verifies its presentation in Comptes rendus 21 (1845), pp. 97–98: www.academie-sciences.fr/pdf/dossiers/Biot/Biot_pubd6.htm . The academy notice, rather than an inaccessible page of the full book, supports the present biographical citation.
Bakerian lecture read 12 November 1801; Philosophical Transactions 92 (1802), pp. 12–48. Reproduced original text; Proposition VIII on superposition/interference. The later digitization date is not the paper date.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.Figure 1. Screenshot of the "Derivative" topic page. View it live at: ourbigbook.com/go/topic/derivativeVideo 2. OurBigBook Web topics demo. Source. - local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control

You can also edit articles on the Web editor without installing anything locally. Video 3. Edit locally and publish demo. Source.
