Cameras

Cordin ultra high speed camera – up to 1 mio fps

In August of this year, we installed the world’s first Cordin Ultra High Speed Camera of the 535D series at the University of Lodz in Poland.

Cryotechnics

The Cryostation – New options

The new Cryostation by Montana Instruments is an optical closed-cycle helium cryostat.

Imaging

High resolution at a distance: Xradia´s unique X-ray tomography systems

Microstructural evolution observation to determine the effect of conditions on structure over time.

Interferometry

ZeGage™ – Robust and affordable 3D optical profiler for precision surface metrology on the production floor

ZeGage™ is the ideal non-contact optical profiler for quantitative measurements of 3D form and roughness on precision machined surfaces.

Nanotechnology

Application: Metamaterial structure fabrication using DPN

Metamaterials are artificially engineered structures that have unusual properties that may not be found in naturally occurring materials.

Optical tweezers – Soon an established technology?

The principle of optical tweezers has been known since the works of Arthur Ashkin in 1970, where he was the first to describe the possibility to detain small particles in an optical trap.

Particle size

Particle size measurements with high resolution

At the moment, the disc centrifuge technology provides the highest resolving particle size measurement on the market.

Photovoltaics

Characterization of polymer solar cells and modules by luminescence imaging

In this application note, we report about the laterally resolved detection of luminescence emitted from the solar cell by using a CCD camera.

Things to know about solar reference cells

A small but determining component of an IV measurement set up is the reference cell for the calibration of the intensity of a solar simulator.

Profilometry

Precision depth measurement of shallow SIMS craters using a Stylus profilometer

SIMS craters deeper than 0.1 mm can be routinely measured using the P-16+ with less than 1% repeatability, represented here by one standard deviation from a mean depth obtained from ten separate measurements.

Spectroscopy

SisuROCK

Hyperspectral imaging for mineral exploration.

AFM-IR: Analysis of organic photovoltaic materials

Organic compounds play an important role in the current discussions on the development of new materials in photovoltaics.
