Portable Fiber Optic Temperature Sensor

The handheld temperature sensing system is suitable for use in high voltage environments, semiconductor industry, medical applications, laboratories and harsh chemical environments. It was designed from the ground up as a mobile device, with an overall size comparable to a large PDA. Operating on a rechargeable lithium ion battery gives the user freedom to move between critical sensing points and store data directly to the unit’s internal memory. An integrated USB 2.0 digital interface provides both data transfer between the system and a PC as while functioning as the system’s battery charger.

Photometry and Radiometry Sensors

Sensors come in three different configurations: the Standard Series can be adapted for use with most accessories. The Miniature Series includes a similar range of sensors with a smaller-diameter package, compatible with UDTi's line of integrating sphere accessories. The Low-Profile Series is designed for applications with limited mechanical clearance. Basic sensors, used alone, are suitable for illuminance or irradiance measurements.

Each sensor can be combined with various types of optical adaptors to form a sensor head assembly, suitable for measurements of flux, intensity, luminance, or radiance.

Autocorrelators

These autocorrelators are used for measurements of ultrashort (ps, fs) pulses, with femto-second resolution (APE: 50fs standard, 20fs optional, or Femtolasers: 5fs - 300fs), spectral range 550nm - 1100nm (other wavelengths on request), based on Michelson interferometer.

UF Pulse Measurements

Using a biprism as a miniaturized optical delay line, a thick SHG crystal for extracting spectral information from single pulses and combining the two into one compact unit, leads to a simple way of measuring several parameters at the same time. In combination with VideoFROG software and UPM GRENOUILLE oscilloscope for ultrashort laser pulses, the time domain and frequency domain intensity and phase can be displayed and interpreted very easily.

We provide a family of micro-optics and wavefront sensor based instrumentation for lasers, optics, ophthalmology and semiconductor metrology.

Low & High Order Aberrometers

CLAS 2D Instant Phase Analysis

Divergent light sources (laser diodes) and complicated optical setups or optical components can be analyzed in terms of intensity and phase distribution without expensive test plates or null correctors. The principle is based on a micro-optic lenslet array and high speed CCD camera. It provides many parameters like M2, MTF, RMS wavefront, Strehl ratio, Seidel and Zernike aberration coefficients.

Integrated Systems

•  OmniWave Aspheric Surface Measurement

OmniWave introduces stitching metrology by piecing together measurements of the extended aspheric surface with filtering. This ensures that all portions of the measurement are valid before final figuring and greatly reduce the number of fabrication steps. These systems can measure extremely high aspect ratio parts (f#<0.8) and aspheric components up to 1000.

The Dual PEM Stokes Polarimeter is a state of the art metrology device for measuring the polarization state of light.  Each of our polarimeters can quantify all 4 Normalized Stokes vectors with a single measurement and no moving parts. The Stokes Polarimeter is currently available in the following models; UV – Visible, NIR, Mid IR, NIR Fiber Polarimeter and UV to IR.

We provide a comprehensive range of polarization modulators and detectors for various applications.

Optical Head Assemblies

The PEM-90 Series I modulators is designed and built to vibrate at a resonant frequency that is determined by its size. Different optical materials are used to cover the operating range from vacuum UV to near IR.

The PEM-90 Series II modulators use a symmetric or octagonal shape for the modulator optical element. A two-dimensional standing wave in the optical element doubles the retardation available for a given drive voltage. Series II modulators are particularly useful in the infrared spectrum.

DUAL PEM Systems

These systems allow real-time polarization analysis measurements. When only one PEM is used, two measurements must be made with the sample rotated 45° after the first measurement. However, measurements can be made in real time using two PEMs mounted at 45° with respect to each other.

Photo Detectors

The silicon and germanium photodiode and avalanche photodiode detectors are designed to meet the specific requirements for maximum flexibility of operation.

• Frequency response. DC to several times the operating frequency of the PEM being used. 
• Dark-current and/or background DC null.
• Preamplification for current to voltage conversion and buffering for impedance matching to signal cables. 
  
  
  

PEM-100 Controller

The PEM-100 controller controls the peak retardation of the photoelastic modulator optical head. It provides a DC voltage signal to the electronic head which determines the transducer vibration amplitude and thus the strain amplitude in the optical element. A current feedback loop from the electronic head enables the controller to maintain stable peak retardation levels.

Signal Conditioning Unit

The SCU is used to measure both the AC and DC signals. It separates both signals and applies selectable amplification.

Exicor Birefringence Measurement Systems

Utilizing the patented Photoelastic Modulator (PEM) technology, these systems provide the advanced birefringence sensitivity for high speed sub-nanometer measurements.

An optical sample as large as 12" X 12" can be characterized manually or automatically mapped and graphically displayed. Once a sample is placed on the translation stage, intuitive software guides the operator through the step measurement process. User interface software calculates the retardation value and angle and displays them in a variety of formats. The software also provides file management, calibration and statistical analysis features.

Spectroradiometers

With the patented Pritchard optics to collect incoming optical radiation, these spectroradiometers are designed for various light measurement applications, including the cathode ray tube ("CRT")/flat panel display ("FPD"), automotive, aerospace, lighting, motion picture, research and development and related industries.

Photometers & Video Photometers

Photometers are specifically designed to measure emitted, reflected or transmitted light in photometric terms of luminous flux, luminance, illuminance or luminous intensity. Our photometers come with the patented Pritchard optical system to clearly and unambiguously define the area to be measured.

The video photometers utilize a multi-element, two-dimensional detector which enables “snapshot” images of a target and allows photometric analysis thereafter. In comparison to traditional instruments, a video photometer allows several “measurements” to be performed simultaneously, creating ease of use and less time taken to complete tasks such as display uniformity. The detector spectral response of Video Photometers is filtered to match the CIE Photopic response function for accurately weighted photometric measurements.
