Getting a log-in

If you're a member of the Optics and Photonics Group you are encouraged to add to and edit/amend this wiki - for example if you've got generally useful knowledge about something you'd like to share, or perhaps want to add a resource to the list of AO resources. To do so you should:

  1. Request a login AND
  2. Send an email to Rikesh.Patel to say you've done so (annoyingly, the wiki doesn't automatically tell us that there are account requests pending).

Getting started
