Sensors & Detectors News
Optem International
Sep 1, 1997 — WASHINGTON -- Researchers at the Naval Research Laboratory's Center for Bio/Molecular Science and Engineering have developed a multichannel biosensor capable of providing early detection of anthrax and other lethal biological agents. Now in advanced prototype form, the sensor soon could become an indispensable tool against biological warfare -- an area in which the US has few safeguards. The brick-size device simultaneously monitors four fluorescence-based fiber optic biosensors using a fiber...
Photonics plays a role in all areas of military development: Sensing, Detecting the Enemy: Photonics Expands Strategic Vision
Sep 1, 1997 — The greatest trick in any battle is seeing the enemy before they see you. Unlike radar and other active detection systems, optical detection is mainly a passive detection system, meaning that the act of detection does not emit a tell-tale sign to...
Sensor Warns of Biological Warfare
Sep 1, 1997 — WASHINGTON -- Researchers at the Naval Research Laboratory's Center for Bio/Molecular Science and Engineering have developed a multichannel biosensor capable of providing early detection of anthrax and other lethal biological agents. Now in advanced...
SPIE Annual Meeting Draws Largest Attendance Ever
Sep 1, 1997 — SPIE drew a record attendance of more than 6000 from 42 countries to its annual meeting and symposium in San Diego. Approximately 3600 technical attendees, 1200 exhibit representatives and 1200 exhibit-only attendees flocked to the San Diego...
Ultraviolet Device Captures Images of Aurora Borealis
Sep 1, 1997 — An international probe satellite has sent back images of the aurora borealis captured by a UV imaging device manufactured by Netherlands-based Delft Electronic Products BV. The 20-kg UV imager comprises two cameras, two Earth sensors, a gimbal...
Volcano Research Keeps Its Distance
Sep 1, 1997 — MEXICO CITY -- A Pan-American research team has been using photonics to watch a nearby volcano in hopes of learning how to forecast eruptions, assess health risks for people who live near volcanoes and determine volcanoes' effects on air pollution....
Defense Technology Aids Medicine
Aug 1, 1997 — WASHINGTON -- A combination of military and commercial technology has created a practical midwave IR spectral imaging microscope. The system developed by researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the National Institutes...
DUV Inspection May Be Vital to Next Generation of Microchips
Aug 1, 1997 — YAVNE, Israel -- Scientists familiar with the semiconductor industry say deep-UV inspection systems will be an important part of next-generation microchips as feature sizes slip below the 0.25-µm mark by the turn of the century. About every...
European photonics manufacturers predict key laser applications
Aug 1, 1997 — MUNICH, Germany -- Measurement, medicine and machining will be the most important future applications of laser technology, according to a proposal that photonics manufacturers presented to the European Commission's fifth Framework Programme...
Fiber Drawing Tower Ups Quality, Enables Diversity
Aug 1, 1997 — Fiberoptic Systems Inc. (FSI) of Simi Valley, Calif., a manufacturer of optical fiber and assemblies for the OEM market, experienced a significant increase in demand for its diverse products and services. The company needed to produce raw optical...
Medical Sensing:
Aug 1, 1997 — Noninvasive medical sensors have been an enigma to many in the research and development sectors in recent years. So close to becoming viable, yet not close enough, they have inhabited the no manis land between the chalk board and the potentially...
Photonics Brings Mars to the World's Living Rooms
Aug 1, 1997 — Every decade or so, in the void of space, photonics plays a pivotal role in an event that makes the universe seem a little smaller. A quarter of a century ago, images of man's first steps on the moon sparked America's interest. Today's interest is...
Sensors Are Key to Missile Interceptor
Aug 1, 1997 — The Pentagon has successfully tested an infrared sensor that will act as the "eyes" of a missile interceptor, which is part of a proposed nationwide defense system against enemy ballistic missiles. The infrared sensors are designed to identify and...
Telecommunications:
Aug 1, 1997 — Telecommunications is primarily a photonic endeavor in the 1990s. Optical fiber carries signals from lasers to detectors, which just happen to turn those photons into electrons for the ride to a switch that sends it to a television, a telephone or...
Desert Nomads Rely on Photonics to Find Fertile Ground
Jul 1, 1997 — United Nations organizations are increasingly employing satellites and high-resolution imaging to combat desertification, pests and pollution. In one striking example, modern remote-sensing technology has come to the aid of Saudi Arabia's desert...
Pigment Holds Promise for 3-D Machine Vision, Optical Computing
Jul 1, 1997 — JERUSALEM -- A saltwater-borne bacterium may provide the key to the development of parallel optical computers and real-time 3-D robotic vision. Bacteriorhodopsin, the pigment protein derived from the bacterium, possesses unique electro-optical...
Quantum Cascade Laser to Play Key Role in Gas Detection
Jul 1, 1997 — MURRAY HILL, N.J. -- A new laser-based sensor could mark a breakthrough in the detection of minute quantities of trace gases and pollutants.The exceedingly sensitive device is capable of detecting pollutants in parts per billion, according to one of...
Rome scientist Hendrickson dies
Jul 1, 1997 — ROME, N.Y. -- Brian M. Hendrickson, associate chief scientist for photonics at Rome Laboratory, died at 53 after a brief illness.Hendrickson had been with Rome Laboratory for 29 years, both in the photonics program and the Federal Scientific and...
UV Imager Catches Comets Targeting Earth
Jul 1, 1997 — BALTIMORE -- Having a winning design for a satellite imaging device can have rewards beyond the recognition associated with winning a NASA contract. Just ask Iowa University's Louis A. Frank, who designed a UV/VIS imager to study the Earth's aurora,...
'Superlattice' Laser Achieves Record Power in the Mid-IR
Jun 1, 1997 — MURRAY HILL, N.J. -- Lucent Bell Laboratories researchers have reported measuring peak power of 750 mW from a pulsed 8-µm laser at liquid nitrogen temperatures.The device, a quantum cascade laser based on superlattice crystal structures,...
Crystal Films Grow on 'Universal' Substrate
Jun 1, 1997 — Cornell University researchers are in the preliminary stages of demonstrating that crystals of any material can be grown on a substrate. If the technique proves successful, it could open the door for manufacturing a whole new class of...
European Photonics Experts Focus on Munich
Jun 1, 1997 — More than 14,000 photonics scientists, engineers and technicians worldwide will converge on the Munich Trade Fair Site for the 13th LASER conference and exposition June 16 to 20. This year's event, touted as the leading international trade fair for...
Integrated Circuit Uses 'Critters' to Detect Contamination
Jun 1, 1997 — OAK RIDGE, Tenn. -- What's half living, half machine and can sniff out pollutants and chemicals in a single whiff? The latest microsensor technology from the US Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) combines living luminescent...
