May 2019 Need filters for Spectroscopy? Elliot Scientific now offering Iridian Spectral Technologies Iridian is a leader in optical filter solutions for many scientific applications involving spectroscopy. Spectroscopy filters are used within biomedical, microscopy and sensor applications such as emission cytometry and fluorescence studies. Iridian also manufacture a range of filters specifically for Raman studies and also laser-induced fluorescence. In addition, a number of dielectric optical filters are available for machine vision and imaging applications, along with mid-IR bandpass filters formulated for optimal detection of spectral emission lines. Proprietary thin film designs, deposition processes and other manufacturing technologies ensure Iridian filters deliver high-performance and durability in the following areas: • • • • • •
Bandpass Dichroic Edge - Long, Short and Ultra-Steep Emission Excitation and Notch
The company invests heavily in research and development in order to remain at the forefront of optical filter technology. Please contact us for details or visit our Iridian Filters page.
Gamma Scientific's Near Eye Display test systems are not just for games Gamma Scientific has been demonstrating their new near eye display (NED) test systems at Display Week 2019 held this month in San Jose. The latest NED-LMD system delivers high spatial resolution display quality measurements for Virtual Reality (VR) , Augmented Reality (AR), Mixed Reality (MR) and Head Up Displays (HUD). Featuring a Wide Field of View and spectroradiometric, image quality and autocollimating alignment analysis, the instrument is uniquely suited for characterisation of the Virtual Image and Qualified Viewing Space of near-eye displays. These displays are often seen as add-ons for the entertainment industry but, in reality, medical VR, AR and MR systems will require more stringent approvals to ensure they deliver the higher standards in both resolution and colour performance than consumer products. Likewise avionic displays, and near-eye industrial, educational and training systems. For more info please contact us, or visit our Gamma Scientific Display Measurement Systems' page.
How low can they go? New noise floor for Lake Shore's 8600 VSMs The 8600 Series VSM, from Lake Shore Cryotronics, combines high sensitivity, rapid measurement speeds, and ease of operation for faster and more accurate measurements. It now offers a lower noise floor of 0.15 x 10-7emu. The 8600 has a number of temperature options. These include a cryostat, a high-temperature oven, and a single stage variable temperature insert. The combined temperature range of the options is 4.2 to 1273 K, and all three options quickly slide into place and are auto-detected by the system's software - video demonstration. 8600 Series Features • • • • • • •
A video detailing the 8600's capabilities is online
New 0.15 x 10-7 emu noise floor at 10 sec/point 10 ms/pt data acquisition rate 10,000 Oe/s field ramp rate Rapid, repeatable temperature option exchange High stability of ±0.05% per day Fields to 3.26 T Widest temperature range: 4.2 K to 1273 K
The magnet poles are also easily adjusted with a specially designed indexed positioning system that allows the pole gap to be set at one of six repeatable positions, eliminating the need to recalibrate after each change. Conceived with a focus on a clean, ergonomic design that simplifies the researcher's interaction with the system, the 8600 Series went on to win the 2017 R&D 100 award from R&D Magazine.
