The RP Photonics Encyclopedia (formerly Encyclopedia of Laser Physics and Technology) is an
imaging science, optical metrology, spectroscopy and ultrashort pulse physics.[1] It is available online as a free resource. An earlier version of the encyclopedia appeared as a two-volume book.[2] As of March 2024[update]
, the online version of the encyclopedia contains 1043 articles.
Since 2012, the encyclopedia is closely interlinked with the RP Photonics Buyer's Guide, a large directory of photonics product suppliers.[3] For the majority of products, there is a one-to-one correspondence between an encyclopedia article and a listing of suppliers for that product.
Other resources linked with the RP Photonics Encyclopedia are a blog named The Photonics Spotlight,[4] a glossary of photonics terms and acronyms,[5] various tutorials,[6] and a photonics quiz.[7]
The author is Dr. Rüdiger Paschotta, founder and managing director of RP Photonics AG in Frauenfeld, Switzerland.[8]
