Here we present a detailed description of the construction and performance characterization of a hertz-level linewidth coherent optical frequency synthesizer across the optical telecommunication band. A narrow-linewidth cavity-stabilized laser at 1565.00 nm is built and coherently transferred through a fiber link with an additional fractional frequency instability of 2.0×10-16 at 1 s averaging time. Broadband, coherent optical frequency synthesis is then achieved by steering one mode of a laser frequency comb with the transferred optical frequency oscillation. By beating with a 1542.14 nm ultra-stable cavity-stabilized laser, the evaluated fractional frequency stability and absolute linewidth of the nearest synthesized optical oscillation are 3.5×10-15 at 1 s averaging time and 1.8 Hz, respectively. According to the ultra-low-noise feature of the utilized laser frequency comb of 4.7×10-17 at 1 s averaging time, the synthesized optical frequency oscillations could maintain the high coherence across the comb's output bandwidth.Microfacet-based material appearance models are commonly considered as a physical plausible representation of matter-light interaction. With such models, the microgeometry of a surface element is defined by a statistical distribution of microfacets. The mathematical formulation ensures physical plausibility, such as energy conservation and reciprocity. Many authors have addressed microfacet bidirectional scattering distribution function (BSDF) representations, with various normal distribution functions (NDFs) and their relationship with shadowing and masking, or the effects due to multiple light scattering on the microgeometry. However, an extensive study on how an actual microgeometry drives material appearance still is missing. This question is a key i
