Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive historical overview of applied optics and optical glass research at the National Bureau of Standards (NBS). It chronicles the NBS's significant contributions to the development and advancement of optical instruments, including refractometers, range finders, and camera lenses, particularly during World Wars I and II. The research, which helped meet the armed forces' need for precise optical devices, resulted in a groundbreaking understanding of optical properties and measurement techniques. The book highlights the Bureau's role in establishing performance standards, training personnel, and collaborating with industry to enhance optical glass production, pushing the boundaries of optical technology and its military and commercial applications.
