Warum ist Messtechnik für MikroOptik so wichtig?Warum Johannes für die MikroOptik so wichtig ist!!
1987: Der Optische Computer
! Am Rechenzentrum der Uni wurden die Lochkarten abgeschafft
! Prof. Lohmann fegte jeden vom Tennisplatz
! Speckles wurden noch ordentlich maskiert
! Willi feierte rauschende Feste am Geisberg
! Norbert kam von Bell Labs, Johannes vom ZOS
Wirklich prägend für diese Epoche war ein Bild →
Historisch interessant ist, dass sowohl beim optischen Computer als auch beidiesem Bild wichtige Details übersehen wurden.
Holographische Linsen in Dichromatgelatine
Die Kombination optischer Computer und Holographie war unschlagbar!
