The basics of fiber optic cables and bundles and how they can be used to collect and direct light are discussed in ‘An Introduction to a Spectrometer: Fiber Optic Bundles’. This article will discuss ...

Diagnosing a muscular disorder, disease or infection often requires a sample of the tissue to be extracted, but these biopsies can be painful and difficult to perform. Researchers at the ...

In an important step toward endoscopic diagnosis of cancer, researchers have developed a handheld fiber optic probe that can be used to perform multiple nonlinear imaging techniques without the need ...

Saelig Company, Inc. unveiled the Teledyne LeCroy HVFO103 – a high voltage fiber-optically isolated 60MHz oscilloscope probe that is optimally designed for the measurement of small signals floating on ...

Near-infrared (NIR) and Raman spectroscopy are increasingly used to measure process and product characteristics in real-time, as these methods allow fast and non-destructive measurements without ...

Microendoscopes are the cornerstone of modern medical diagnostics - they allow us to see what we could not even describe two decades ago. The technology is constantly improving, with ICTER scientists ...

The application fields for spectroscopy are growing rapidly. Fiber optical probes allow for a flexible interface between the spectrometer and the sample to be examined. They even reach small spaces or ...

Due to the trend of miniaturization of devices, micromanipulation has been a hot topic in the last two decades. Unlike the macro world, the micro object can easily be damaged if the contact force is ...

Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy is extremely useful for analyzing rough surfaced samples and powders. However, it is difficult to analyze most of the rough surfaced samples with in-compartment ...

Fiber optics provides a transmission medium that surpasses coax cable in many ways, especially for long transmission runs. But now with HD-SDI, the need for high-frequency capacity and low loss brings ...
