Solving PCR Optical Filter Challenges for High Performance qPCR Instruments 17 Mar 2022

Iridian Spectral Technologies

qPCR instrument-related challenges can be daunting; burdened by tough deadlines and fast rollouts, budgets that offer little wiggle room, and expectations for flawless functionality. A combination of Iridian’s wavelength selective excitation, emission, and dichroic filters serving each channel of a qPCR instrument provide high sensitivity to these systems while preserving the necessary signal-to-noise ratio delivering “More Signal, with Less Background”

Sb to Mn Energy Transfer Revealed using Time-Resolved Emission Spectroscopy (TRES) 09 Mar 2022

Edinburgh Instruments

Zero-dimensional (0D) metal halide hybrids are an emerging class of semiconducting materials for optoelectronic applications including light-emitting diodes, lasers and photovoltaics.

VPH Gratings: Flexibility in Design 28 Feb 2022

Wasatch Photonics

Wasatch Photonics VPH gratings offer optical and instrument designers a tremendous amount of flexibility to optimize performance for a specific application. In this tech note, we’ll discuss the benefits of the various standard and patented grating design technologies at our disposal, and the general grating parameters we can control to meet your specific needs – for wavelengths spanning 300-2500 nm.

A new spectroradiometer drastically improves filter quality 06 Jan 2022

Admesy

Admesy develops spectroradiometers, colorimeters and light meters. They are used in large volume 24/7 production testing as well in smaller volume niche system manufacturers. One example is the successful cooperation now started with Cutting Edge Coatings GmbH (CEC).

Continuous Versus Discrete Calibration Sources: Consideration for Use 05 Nov 2021

Optronic Laboratories

High efficiency and long performance, rapid power up, and compact size have made LED-based sources an attractive alternative for lamp-based calibration systems.

One laser, multi-color nanoscopy 02 Nov 2021

Hubner Photonics

In this white paper we present a new technique that makes use of a single laser to excite multiple fluorophores in the same spectral range (red/far-red) coupled to a spectral demixing strategy that allows diffraction limits to be overcome thereby permitting 3D multi-color nanoscopy with increased simplicity, speed, and reliability of output data.

Optimize the performance and cost of your automated optical imaging system 09 Sep 2021

Dover Motion

Optimize the performance and cost of your automated optical imaging system with 6 key equations for selecting an imaging sensor, objective lens, Z-focusing nano-positioning stage and XY sample positioning motion. Topics covered include: optimal imaging sensor size and resolution, objective lens magnification and numerical aperture, and XYZ motion resolution and stability requirements to enable crisp images. Also discussed is how diffraction affects image resolution, and how to calculate the depth of field for a given objective lens.
