Search by keywords within the figure caption, article title, and author listing. Refine your search by using these guidelines on syntax, grouping, and wildcards:
Grouping. Separate search groups with parentheses and Booleans. Note the Boolean sign must be in upper-case.
Quotation marks. Use quotation marks to find words that must appear adjacent to one another; for example, the search "solid-state laser" will give results including both words together.
Wildcards. Improve efficiency in your search by using wildcards:
Filters. Use the filter options to narrow your search results. Users can filter by:
Grouping. Separate search groups with parentheses and Booleans. Note the Boolean sign must be in upper-case.
- (diode OR solid-state) AND laser [search contains "diode" or "solid-state" and laser]
- (photons AND downconversion) - pump [search contains both "photons" and "downconversion" but not "pump"]
Quotation marks. Use quotation marks to find words that must appear adjacent to one another; for example, the search "solid-state laser" will give results including both words together.
Wildcards. Improve efficiency in your search by using wildcards:
- Asterisk ( * ) -- Example: "elect*" retrieves documents containing "electron," "electronic," and "electricity."
- Question mark (?) -- Example: "gr?y" retrieves documents containing "grey" or "gray"
Filters. Use the filter options to narrow your search results. Users can filter by:
- Journal -- Filter across OSA's traditional and Express titles.
- Volume/Issue/Page – Browse images within a specific volume, issue, and first page number.
- Date Range -- OSA will be adding more backfile content to the Image Bank on a regular basis.
- OSA Technical Divisions -- Based on OSA's 6 main topical divisions.
- OCIS Code -- Images can be filtered based on the source article's OCIS keywords.

Liu, " https://www.osapublishing.org/optica/abstract.cfm?URI=optica-3-8-861 Caption: (a)–(d) x–z cross sections of the beam intensity are shown as a function of focal depth, zf, for a focused Gaussian beam propagating through in silico fractal medium 2. For each panel, the result for a single simulation is displayed on top, with the corresponding averaged result over N=100 randomly generated fractal media displayed on the bottom. For visualization, all images are self-normalized to a maximum value of 1. |
