Request InfoJEOL USA Inc.PEABODY, Mass., July 12, 2011 — JEOL USA Inc. has developed an energy-dispersive spectrometer (EDS) for ultrafast, ultrasensitive collection of x-rays through analysis with its scanning transmission electron microscopes (STEMs). The Centurio is a silicon drift detector energy-dispersive spectrometer that collects x-rays from samples at a large solid angle of up to 0.98 steradians from a detection area of 100 mm2. The larger the solid angle of measurement, the more data the EDS collects to construct detailed analytical maps of the elements in the sample. With the ability to efficiently collect x-rays at very high...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 7/15/2020COVID-19 Detection SystemA COVID-19 Detection System from OZ Optics Ltd. is designed to detect fluorescence and color changes from dyes that activate in the presence of specific viral DNA or RNA.

Putting that knowledge to work requires an understanding of the tools of the trade and how to use them.All optical spectrometry techniques rely on the measurement of radiant power.

These articles will provide the tools optics designers need to tailor their designs to the appropriate manufacturing process and to optimize the cost of component fabrication.Aspheric surfaces are powerful tools that combine the optical corrections of multiple lenses into a single element (Figure 1) and affect performance in ways that spherical optics cannot. For example,...Photonics HandbookAdaptive Optics: Taming Atmospheric Turbulence: For more than three centuries, the Earth’s atmosphere has frustrated astronomers. The layer of gases that we breathe also distorts the images formed by telescopes. This means that conventional telescopes of more than a few centimeters in diameter cannot reach the resolution limit set by their optics.To Isaac Newton the problem was clear, and in 1704 he realized the effects of atmospheric turbulence on image formation. Just as heat waves shimmering above a hot patch of ground can distort our...Photonics HandbookSpectroscopy: Mastering the Techniques: Spectrochemical analysis employing optical spectroscopic methods is used to monitor the water we drink, the food we eat, the status of human health, and the quality of the environment. Such methods are also crucial to the development of safe and valuable industrial processes.The scope of optical spectroscopic instrumentation is indeed very broad.
