Laser Method Sandblasts, Without Sand, for Expedited Manufacturing
Laser Method Sandblasts, Without Sand, for Expedited Manufacturing
In the past, sandblasting has been a necessary part of production in a number of industrial processes. Now, the process may be replaced with a faster, cleaner, and more environmentally friendly process. A team from the Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology IWS developed the technology LIGHTblast, which, is now being transferred to the semiconductor manufacturing, automotive supply, and other industries.

Bristol Instruments Inc. - 671 Series Laser Wavelength Meter 671 Series Laser Wavelength Meter

Bristol Instruments Inc.
The 671 Series Laser Wavelength Meter uses a proven Michelson interferometer-based design to measure the wavelengths of CW lasers to an accuracy as high as ±0.2 parts per million. Operation is available from 375 nm to 12 μm. Continuous calibration with a built-in wavelength standard guarantees the reliable accuracy that is required for the most meaningful experimental results.

MKS/Newport - Fiber Optic De-Speckler Fiber Optic De-Speckler

MKS/Newport
A DeSpeckler averages the modal noise within an optical fiber. For many fiber coupled applications, modal noise interferes with optimal performance. The Newport™ small, simple and integrated de-speckling system maximizes performance and reliability in illumination, with no optical loss.

Battery Research and Failure Analysis Using Vibrational Spectroscopy Battery Research and Failure Analysis Using Vibrational Spectroscopy
Tue, Oct 11, 2022 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Sergey Shilov, Ph.D., of Bruker Optics, shares about how the combination of electrochemistry with vibrational spectroscopy is helpful for studying electrochemical reactions, battery research, and failure analysis. He presents an overview of the different spectroelectrochemical tools, the optimization of their setup, and details of the communication between the potentiostat and the spectrometer. Applications for this combination include electro-oxidation of metal-organic complexes, carbon analysis in flexible electrodes, chemical mapping of the solid electrolyte interface of lithium metal battery, and the analysis of gases evolved during the battery’s decomposition. Presented by Bruker Optics.

The Next Step in Optical Design: How the Modeling of Optics Fabrication Avoids Common Pitfalls The Next Step in Optical Design: How the Modeling of Optics Fabrication Avoids Common Pitfalls
Wed, Oct 12, 2022 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EDT
Oliver Faehnle, Ph.D. shares on a new methodological analysis of optics fabrication technologies that enables the modeling and simulation of whole fabrication chains — by reading in lens design data. To that aim both optical systems and optical fabrication technologies have been classified and thus enabled to digitally interconnect. Consequently, the optimal fabrication chain for a given optical element can be determined out of the about 340 existing optical manufacturing technologies. Sponsored by Lambda Research Corporation.
