Request InfoSpectronics Corp., SpectrolineWESTBURY, N.Y., June 22, 2016 — Spectroline Corp. has announced the BI-O-Vision series of transilluminators designed for dual-light convenience in one unit. The devices emit high levels of UV radiation through the viewing surface and are engineered for the visualization of target DNAs and proteins. The Bi-O-Vision series features two workstations, producing both 312-nm UV and white light. The TD-1000R model offers fixed-intensity while the TVD-1000R model offers variable-intensity control of either UV or white light. These units are continuously adjustable from 100 down to 50 percent, enabling researchers to...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSBioPhotonics May/Jun 2023 IssueTunable Laser SystemThe Tunable Laser System from Spectrolight Inc. is an all-in-one tunable light source system that enables precise selection of a broad spectral range from 410 to 1650 nm and easy bandwidth adjustment...BioPhotonics May/Jun 2023 IssueLive-cell Imaging PlatformThe Omni Pro 12 Live-Cell Imaging Platform from Axion BioSystems Inc. features integrated robotics and a multi-plate design compatible with any standard incubator for scientists and drug developers...BioPhotonics Mar/Apr 2022 IssueNIR CameraThe See3CAM_CU27 full-HD, ultra-low light, USB 3.1 Gen 1 camera from e-con Systems Inc. features NIR performance through the SONY STARVIS™ IMX462 image sensor.

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 HandbookLight-Emitting Diodes: A Primer: Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are semiconductors that convert electrical energy into light energy. The color of the emitted light depends on the semiconductor material and composition, with LEDs generally classified into three wavelengths: ultraviolet, visible, and infrared.The wavelength range of commercially available LEDs with single-element output power of at least 5 mW is 275 to 950 nm. Each wavelength range is made from a specific semiconductor material family,...Photonics HandbookFluorescence Lifetime Imaging: Choosing the Best Approach: Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), which measures the spatial distribution of the fluorescence decay, can be achieved either in the time or in the frequency domain. Each approach exhibits advantages and disadvantages, depending on the type of light detector and acquisition method employed.The term fluorescence is often applied as a synonym for photoluminescence, although luminescence actually covers fluorescence and phosphorescence. Both of these terms describe the process of...Photonics HandbookMachine Vision Cameras: Making the Right Selection: Improvements and affordability have broadened the use of vision systems for inspection, but several factors should be considered before making a purchase.Technological advances have resulted in new, higher-quality sensors that enable machine vision cameras to deliver greater features and functionality at a lower cost than ever before.
