WHITE PAPER
Lake Shore Cryotronics, Inc. - Characterization to the Extremes: Terahertz materials characterization at cryogenic temperatures and high magnetic fields Characterization to the Extremes: Terahertz materials characterization at cryogenic temperatures and high magnetic fields
Lake Shore Cryotronics, Inc.

In continuing pursuit of improved performance, higher processing speed, and more compact packaging, researchers spend considerable time identifying and characterizing novel and previously unexplored materials. Recently, the terahertz frequency range has emerged as a new frontier for materials science, helping to map out this unknown territory. This paper explores how THz energy can be used to gain insights into material properties, particularly under variable or extreme temperatures and magnetic fields.

Aspheres: Tolerancing for High Performance

Wednesday, June 25, 2014 – 1 - 2 p.m. EDT

FREE WEBINAR


Dan Bajuk
Tolerancing high precision aspheres is different. Where should you tolerance? What should you tolerance? Zygo Extreme Precision Optics draws on years of experience in manufacturing custom optics, to share examples of geometries and concerns in several demanding asphere applications. Learn how and why to tolerance your custom optical designs -- enough to avoid unexpected errors, and not so much that you've over-toleranced and added unneeded production requirements.
Industry Events
Sensors Expo & Conference 2014 - June 24-26, 2014 · Rosemont, Ill.
Sensors Expo & Conference 2014 The annual Sensors Expo & Conference, established in 1986, is the only industry event in North America that exclusively focuses on sensors and sensor-integrated systems.

The conference program explores the latest innovations in sensor technology, including Internet of Things, MEMS, Energy Harvesting, M2M, Wireless and Measurement & Detection. The event identifies cutting-edge trends and reflects those trends throughout the exhibit floor with new product announcements and key technology-focused areas, as well as a showcase of hundreds of products and services.
