We discuss nano-scale length metrology of linewidth, step height, and line edge roughness (LER). These properties are of growing importance to the function and
Based on auto- and cross-correlation functions (ACF and CCF), a new surface parameter called profile (or topography) difference, Ds, has been developed for
We have implemented a quantum key distribution (QKD) system with polarization encoding at 850 nm over 1 km of optical fiber. The high-speed management of the
