| Universal Controllers |
 CVI Melles Griot introduces Universal Controllers to run your choice of DPSS or diode lasers from 405 to 660 nm in cw or modulation mode where appropriate. A common format and command set simplifies integration. CDRH/CE turnkey and OEM versions are available. |
| Lower-Cost Blue/Violet Offerings! |
 Our high-power blue/violet laser diodes are now being offered for integration with our PM module, 405 nm 60 mW, making high-power technology affordable for cost-sensitive applications requiring high-quality blue/violet output. Visit Booth 521 for more information! |
| ZYGO's NewView 7000 Series |
 ZYGO's NewView 7000 series provides unprecedented performance and value. Based on noncontact and proprietary scanning technology, the NewView delivers unmatched speed, precision, resolution and flexibility. A wide range of surfaces can be quantitatively measured including smooth, rough and stepped surfaces. |
| OPAL-1000 1 Megapixel Camera |
 The OPAL-1000 camera has a 1/2" CCD area array sensor with 1024x1024, 5.5 um square pixels which can deliver 120 full frame images per second. Other important performance parameters include global shutter, channel matching to below noise level, automatic black and shading, dynamic range of 63 dB and defect pixel correction. |

| Rapid Coatings |
 CVI Melles Griot is offering coated optic turnaround times of two weeks or better. Orders received in our Albuquerque facility can be shipped within 2 weeks. These rapid turnaround times apply to our high laser damage threshold, high-reflection and antireflection coatings from 193 to 2300 nm. |
| Micro Optics and Micro Systems |
 Micro-optics and miniaturized optical assemblies for medicine and industrial applications are produced by Optikron for highest requirements. We are manufacturing micro prisms down to 0.3 mm for endoscopes and fiber applications as well as complex optical assemblies for diode lasers. |
| Andor iDus InGaAs |
 Andor iDus InGaAs offers 512 or 1024 element linear photodiode arrays (PDA) for NIR spectroscopy with high sensitivity and high resolution. Wavelength coverage from 800 to 2200 nm, peak QE >80%, low noise electronics, TE cooling to -85șC, USB 2.0 connectivity. |
| Laser Diode Power |
 GenesysTM from Lambda is the only complete family of programmable DC power supplies with common features and power levels from 750 W to 15 kW. GenesysTM models are ideal for laser diode applications and are available with outputs to 600 V and 1000 A. |

Time out for Japantown
Four generations of Japanese families have lived in this historic area on and around Jackson St. Japantown has survived as an ethnic neighborhood in spite of the internment of Japanese during World War II.
There are eclectic shops, restaurants, cultural arts, Taiko drummers, the Sunday Farmer's Market and the San Jose Tofu company with its fresh tofu. The Japanese Resource Center displays photos and other collections depicting life in Japantown over the last 100 years, and sidewalk plaques tell immigrants' stories.
For more information on BiOS and Photonics West, visit SPIE’s website, spie.org/pw. Photonics.com is a sponsor of the conference and exhibition.
Stop by our booth
Don’t forget to visit Laurin Publishing Company’s Photonics.com and the Photonics Directories at Booth 440 for Photonics West and Booth 8440 for BiOS. Nifty giveaways and the opportunity to enter a daily drawing to win an iPod nano.
