1. Optical Bench Integrated Housing: ULSi
   5/22/2013

   The ULSi is a new type of integrated housing used to house Avantes’ AvaSpec Avabench-75 ULS (ultra-low stray light) optical bench in a 90 x 120 x 35 mm package. It provides superior thermal and mechanical stability, as well as greater mounting flexibility.

2. Miniature Spectrometer: AvaSpec-Micro
   4/23/2013

   To say that the AvaSpec-Micro spectrometer is small would be a huge understatement. This miniature spectrometer measures in at only 62 x 42 x 14.8 mm and weighs only 58 grams. It’s ideal for OEMs that need to comply with space and weight reduction constraints in color measurement, chemical analysis, and environmental analysis applications.

3. Optical Thickness Gauge: 157 Series
   2/20/2013

   The Model 157 Optical Thickness Gauge uses proven optical interferometer technology to measure the absolute thickness of specialty plastic films, medical membranes, and ophthalmic products. High accuracy and exceptional repeatability results in the most reliable measurement available. Straightforward operation and rugged design satisfy the needs of the R&D scientist and the manufacturing engineer.

4. LIBS System Configuration: AvaLIBS Modules
   1/8/2013

   AvaLibs Modules by Avantes provide an alternative method of configuring a LIBS system. These modules allow you to choose the number of AvaSpec spectrometers (up to 8), the number of axis in your sample chamber, and the layout. 50 mJ and 100 mJ lasers by Avantes are available, but you also have the option of connecting your own laser to the system (through an available adaptor plate).

5. 400 MHz Solid State RF Amplifiers
   12/7/2012

   AR recently released the 200A400 and 400A400 solid state RF amplifiers. They cover the 10 kHz to 400 MHz range with 200 and 400 watt configurations. Each RF amplifier utilizes highly linear devices in all high power stages in order to cut down on distortion while improving stability.

6. Miniature Spectrometer: AvaSpec Mini
   11/20/2012

   The AvaSpec Mini is a powerful spectrometer in a small package  (90 x 68 x 20 mm, 155 grams).  The instrument is available in a variety of fixed configurations covering the UV to the NIR  with resolution as high as 0.2 nm (FWHM). This spectrometer is ideal for radiometry, UV/VIS chemistry, colorimetry and Raman spectroscopy applications.  The AvaSpec Mini is available individually for lab use or for integration into other devices as an OEM-spectrometer.

7. Automated Fiber Optic Micro-Polisher: Rev2
   8/6/2012

   The Rev² automated fiber optic polisher is an update to Krell Technologies’ REV micro-polisher. This new model features an automated micro-feed that minimizes the possibility of the polishing film breaking the bare fiber by advancing it to the system’s polishing surface at a slow and controlled rate. Better potential end-face quality is possible due to its ability to air polish the connectors through a controlled mechanism rather than by hand.

8. Portable High Speed Optical Connector Polisher: POP-311
   5/9/2012

   NTT AT’s POP-311 is a portable high speed optical connector polisher.  Its portability makes it ideal for field assembly in optical network installation or maintenance.

9. High-Accuracy Laser Wavelength Meter
   4/19/2012

   The 621 Series Laser Wavelength Meter is the best way to measure the absolute wavelength of CW lasers that operate from the visible to the mid-IR. This system provides real-time laser wavelength information with an accuracy as high as ± 0.0001 nm. Continuous calibration with a built-in wavelength standard ensures the reliable accuracy that is needed to generate the most meaningful experimental results.

10. Low-Cost Laser Wavelength Meter
    4/19/2012

    Absolute laser wavelength information is critical for a variety of applications, but it is not always necessary to know it to the highest accuracy available. Therefore, Bristol Instruments offers the 521 Series Laser Wavelength Meter, coupling accurate wavelength measurement and affordability in a compact system.
