In this demonstration at NIST’s Center for Neutron Research, the microscope produced a resolution of only 0.5 millimeters and a magnification of about 10." 00:26 <@fenn> not much of a microscope 00:28 < nmz787> this is interesting http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_reflector 00:28 <@kanzure> that's odd.. i don't recall starting this article. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=GameDev.net&offset=&limit=500&action=history 00:31 <@fenn> according to the "who contributed this article" section, you did. 00:31 < nmz787> " These reflectors make use of the Fresnel lens effect, which allows for a concentrating mirror with a large aperture and short focal length while simultaneously reducing the volume of material required for the reflector. This greatly reduces the systems cost since sagged-glass parabolic reflectors are typically very expensive.[2] However, in recent years thin-film nanotechnology has significantly reduced the cost of parabolic mirrors." 00:31 < nmz787> well how the hell are the thin film ones made 00:33 <@fenn> yeah i was going to build one of those in the desert 00:35 <@kanzure> neat.. i'm rereading john carmack's email to me 00:35 <@kanzure> "If you have really hit it big, you can aim right for orbit like Elon Musk." 00:36 <@kanzure> that one is going straight to my head 00:36 <@fenn> what the hell does "in recent years thin-film nanotechnology has significantly reduced the cost of parabolic mirrors." mean 00:37 <@fenn> i guess carmack wasn't lucky enough 00:37 <@fenn> why isn't anyone doing nuclear rockets? 00:38 < nmz787> yeah i'm not finding anything interesting on google scholar 00:38 <@fenn> or at least beamed power rockets, like jordin kare's modular laser launch system 00:38 < nmz787> neither for 'fabrication perfect paraboic mirror' 00:39 < nmz787> parabolic* 00:39 <@fenn> nmz787: i dont get what films have to do with parabolic mirrors at all 00:39 <@fenn> are they talking about parabolic *fresnel* mirrors? 00:41 <@fenn> "r. The system overcomes the 00:41 <@fenn> cost barriers of traditional solar concentrators by using a new weather-proof, low-cost, 00:41 <@fenn> high-reflectance polymeric film instead of the traditional heavy, glass-based mirror." 00:41 <@fenn> yeah whatever 00:41 <@fenn> "nanotech." hrmph. 00:41 < nmz787> guess this is how they make DLP chips??? http://proceedings.spiedigitallibrary.org/proceeding.aspx?articleid=1333505 00:42 <@fenn> i remember seeing a process (long time ago) that didn't involve any transfer step 00:43 < nmz787> this sounded good, but I think its talking about efficient reflection 'perfect' not aberration perfect http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/login.jsp?tp=&arnumber=5996488&url=http%3A%2F%2Fieeexplore.ieee.org%2Fxpls%2Fabs_all.jsp%3Farnumber%3D5996488 00:45 <@fenn> the metamaterial is only tuned for perfect reflection at one wavelength 00:45 < nmz787> oO this is cool, but sounds hard http://proceedings.spiedigitallibrary.org/proceeding.aspx?articleid=1272576 00:46 <@fenn> isn't that the same thing? 00:47 <@fenn> oh not quite 00:47 <@fenn> this one uses conducting wires instead of dielectric plates 00:53 < nmz787> i was reading about newtons rings 00:55 < nmz787> so if you have completely flat surface, you should be able to polish glass to be perfect, but making the non-polised side of the lens flat is another thing i guess 00:56 <@fenn> i thought you were doing an all-reflective system 00:56 < nmz787> yeah i am just adding in the lens side of PITAness 00:56 <@fenn> btw making accurate optics is harder than it seems 00:57 <@fenn> i tried to make prisms once.. FAIL 00:57 < nmz787> exactly 00:58 <@fenn> i did get something that would transmit a laser beam, but it had a lot of distortion 00:59 <@fenn> i ended up using a bent piece of mirrored acrylic, worked a zillion times better 01:03 <@fenn> interesting.. superconductors have very small bandgaps, which means it might be possible to absorb and convert ambient thermal energy to electricity 01:05 <@fenn> like maxwell's demon almost 01:16 <@fenn> wow, apparently someone at UT developed an "atom diode", a wall which lets molecules in a gas go one way but not the other 01:18 <@fenn> "these methods will enable efficient isotope separation for medicine and basic research, as well as controlling atoms in gas phase for nanoscale deposition on surfaces. This new, bottom-up, approach to nanoscience is called Atomoscience" 01:18 <@fenn> :( 01:21 < nmz787> hmm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_crystal_tunable_filter 01:22 <@fenn> yes, and? 01:22 <@fenn> it's no different from a dichroic coating 01:26 <@fenn> nmz787: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langmuir%E2%80%93Blodgett_trough 01:31 <@fenn> lctf's are definitely useful for spectral imaging, but there are easier ways to make a spetrometer 01:42 < nmz787> hmm 01:42 < nmz787> that ensures a single surface, but not flatness 01:43 <@fenn> you can use it to construct a dichroic coating from organic polymers, presumably the sort which form liquid crystals 01:44 <@fenn> i'm just curious why you linked to the lctf page 01:47 < nmz787> ahh 01:48 < nmz787> oh just something i remembered, i knew it was pretty lossy tranmission-wise 01:48 <@fenn> oh.. blodgett films can also be tuned like a monochromator, without absorption losses 01:49 <@fenn> varying the film thickness changes the reflected wavelength 01:50 <@fenn> you vary the film thickness by moving the sides of the trough in and out 01:51 <@fenn> it's not solid state though, so there are probably all sorts of fluid flow artifacts 01:51 < nmz787> moving the sides makes layering happen? 01:54 <@fenn> um. the layer thickness is simply the volume of amphiphilic material divided by the surface area.. if you move the sides around it changes the surface area 01:54 <@fenn> there are some nonlinearities of course due to the structure of the monolayer 01:57 <@fenn> there's a limit to tunability.. you can only have one layer at a time 01:57 <@fenn> presumably longer chain molecules can be tuned over a wider range.. but good luck finding extremely long chain liquids 01:59 < superkuh> Dissolved ions could affect the birefringence as well depending on the amphiphilic material. If it's a phopholipid then physical phase changes because of monovalent vs divalent cation exchanges in association with the carboxyl groups will cause transient optical scattering and polarization. 02:00 < superkuh> Er, phospholipid. 02:00 < superkuh> I suppose that's tangential to the topic at hand, though. 02:01 < nmz787> interesting tangent though 02:01 <@fenn> yes they mention contamination as a problem 02:42 -!- delinquentme [~asdfasdf@c-71-236-101-39.hsd1.pa.comcast.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap 02:59 -!- wrldpc [~wrldpc@161.sub-70-192-66.myvzw.com] has quit [Ping timeout: 252

14:07 < TheEmpath> i think that their Earth masters would never allow it 14:07 < TheEmpath> because thats what power is about 14:07 <@kanzure> earth.. masters.. 14:08 <@fenn> spacefaring civilization with relativistic weapons?

14:08 < TheEmpath> you think Earth will let people just go on Mars free market? 14:08 < eudoxia> i mean, they can build some kind of orbiting laser platform thing and some Rods from God, and launch them when they decide they are independent 14:08 < TheEmpath> with no way to reign them in in case they rebel?
