New improved diffuse reflection light source
New improved diffuse reflection light source, optimised for real-time component analysis of food, pharmaceutical and plastic products
Application Optimised UV Lenses
To provide inspectors with an effective tool for non-intrusive verification of spent nuclear fuel, A company in nuclear safeguarding technology asked Resolve Optics to design a wavelength corrected UV Zoom lens to enable its Digital Cerenkov Viewing Device to view a nuclear fuel assembly situated 13 metres away from the lens and through 10 metres of water. Spent nuclear fuel emits a faint UV (Cerenkov) light when gamma rays from fuel assemblies i...
Hamamatsu Photonics announces successful output of 100J laserpulses at a high repetition rate of 10Hz
Hamamatsu Photonics has succeeded in producing laser pulses with energy of 100J at a high repetition rate of 10Hz. This was achieved by increasing the cooling capacity for the laser medium of the pulsed laser system and by optimizing the output of the laser diode module for pumping.
ThoMaS cools off UV-LEDs
Hamamatsu Photonics has introduced a new family of high performing air cooled UV-LEDs for curing and printing applications.
LED’s wavelength improves signal detection
Mouser Electronics is now stocking the FIREFLY E1608 CH DELSS1.22 LED from ams OSRAM.
Acoustic imaging camera detects leaks from 2 to 65 kHz
The Teledyne FLIR range of acoustic imaging cameras, the Si124, Si124-PD and Si124-LD, now offers an improved bandwidth range for detecting compressed air leaks in industrial settings.
St Andrews scientists turn up heat on physics phenomenon
A “quantum harmonic oscillator” – a structure that can control the location and energy of quantum particles which could, in future, be used to develop new technologies including OLEDs and miniature lasers – has been made at room temperature by researchers led by the University of St Andrews.
Lab expansion heralds next step in INFIQ Quantum Dot manufacturer’s growth journey
The manufacturer of the ground-breaking INFIQ quantum dot (QD) technology, Quantum Science, is bolstering its production capability by expanding into a second laboratory at its site in Daresbury, Cheshire.
