DRS Technologies’ Patented Sensor Technology Revealed
DRS Technologies, Inc., Commercial Infrared Systems
Learn the truth about what’s behind DRS Technologies’ competitive advantage over thermal sensor manufacturers – the patented Advanced-Absorber Microbolometer Superstructure, providing better performance through superior image quality and enhanced sensitivity. Designed by DRS’ Principal Staff Scientist, Dr. George Skidmore, PhD, the patented structure started with a simple question, “How could the common bolometer be redesigned to provide enhanced absorbency and resistance for heightened performance?”

Biophotonic Imaging for Medicine: A Digital Conference
Thursday, June 11, from 1 to 5 p.m. EDT
FREE WEBINAR
|
Researchers from around the world will present their latest work at “Biophotonic Imaging for Medicine: A Digital Conference.” The online event will feature a series of 15- and 30-minute talks, each followed by a brief question-and-answer period. Presentations will focus on a range of light-based imaging and microscopy techniques for diagnosing and assessing illness, and for studying other attributes and functions of biological tissue in a medical context. Topics include wavefront engineering for in vivo deep tissue engineering, deep UV excitation microscopy for slide-free pathology, quantitative phase digital holographic microscopy, photoacoustic analysis, multimode fiber endoscopy, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), microscopy and lens-free microscopy.

Zeon Chemicals L.P. – High Performance Optical Plastics
ZEONEX Cyclo Olefin Polymer (COP) is a higher performance optical plastic designed to meet the requirements for precision imaging lens, such as those found in mobile camera, near-eye display, and gesture recognition systems. The low fluorescence property of COP also make it the material of choice for fluorescence-based imaging applications in fluidic devices or other life science consumable applications.
