Traditional applications of microtomes include cutting frozen sections and sliding knives over stationary specimens for cutting wood. The most important criterion for evaluating a microtome is its ease-of-use. Cryostat is a flask-like vessel layered with two walls. The hermetic property of the outer wall prevents flow of air into the vessel thus maintaining the materials inside at constant or usually at low temperatures. Cryostats have the capacity to cool down to a billionth of a degree, and are the main components of Super Conducting Dipoles. An automated slide stainer is used for staining hematology, histology, and cytology slides for diagnostic purposes.
Invest in Photonics, a two-day international partnering convention will be held in Bordeaux, France, March 18 – 19, 2010. The only European-wide photonics-investor convention of its kind, Invest in Photonics 2010, will bring together the world’s experts in photonics and leading investors from Europe and beyond to meet with emerging photonics companies seeking financial support. Upwards of 200 participants are expected to attend.
In-Situ Inc. announced today that the United States Environmental Protection Agency has granted nationwide approval to three In-Situ RDO optical dissolved oxygen methods under the Alternate Test Procedure, or ATP, process.
Brewer Science, Inc., a major innovator of high-technology solutions for the semiconductor and microelectronics markets, is pleased to announce that it has been issued two new patents by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office:
A new application note, freely available on the Malvern Instruments’ website, describes how the new ZEN1010 high concentration zeta potential cell for the company’s market-leading Zetasizer Nano particle characterization system, overcomes a major hurdle in measuring the zeta potential of high concentration samples. Taking the notoriously difficult to measure titanium dioxide as an example, the authors describe experimental work that demonstrates accurate and reliable zeta potential measurement of concentrated, turbid suspensions.
Sales partners DYMAX recently hosted a webinar called Conformal Coating at the Speed of Light: UV Conformal Coating from Start to Finish
Aerotech has launched a new range of high precision linear positioning stages for high throughput industrial production and test applications. The low-cost PRO165LM series features and improves upon Aerotech's time-tested hard-top and side sealed stage design with a powerful direct-drive brushless linear motor, micron level linear encoder feedback and long-life linear motion guide bearings for extremely smooth motion and exceptional servo system sensitivity.
Edmund Optics (EO), the premier provider of optical components, was recently ranked #1 as the preferred optical supplier with excellent customer service and delivery practices. To reinforce its position Edmund Optics’ new Fall 2009 Master Source Book delivers a strong message on their extended customer services and support.
To exploit the quantum world to the fullest, a key commodity is entanglement—the spooky, distance-defying link that can form between objects such as atoms even when they are completely shielded from one another. Now, physicists at the Joint Quantum Institute (JQI), a collaborative organization of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Maryland, have developed a promising new source of entangled photons using quantum dots tweaked with a laser.
Thanks to continuous innovations, optical coatings industry is driving new markets and business opportunities with its progressive transformation. The coatings are utilized in various sectors including environmental, chemical, and abrasion resistance; EMI shielding; climate control; biological protection; and high and low temperature operation, in addition to applications in optical fibers and filters. The market is set to experience significant growth buoyed by interest from the nanotechnology, display, and biotechnology sectors. Demand from the electronics and instrumentation sector, where optical coatings are used in flat panel displays, laser optics, computer and television screens, and camera lenses, will propel market expansion. Medical and transportation industries are the other key end-use areas.
