Jalali, M.; Marti, J. J.; Kirchhoff, A. L.; Lawrenz, F.; Campbell, S. A. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2012
A lithography lab course has been developed that is applicable to students from the middle-school level up to college students. It can also be inserted into electronics technology or similar courses in two- and four-year colleges, or used to demonstrate applications of polymers in chemistry classes. Some of these techniques would enable research…

Moen, Allen L.; Vander Meulen, David L. – Amer J Phys, 1970
Describes an advanced laboratory experiment of Fresnel diffraction which uses a He-Ne gas laser as the source and a wire as the opaque diffracting strip. A photograph of the diffraction pattern is compared with the intensity diagram predicted by the Cornu spiral method. Agreement is clear and impressive, although minor differences are detectable.…
