WE ARE BACK It’s finally here! After two years we are returning to Photonics West in San Francisco and we are so excited to see you. We’d love to show you what we have been working on these past two years so stop by booth 549 to check out our demos. This year we are…
Read MorePoly (para-xylylene), more commonly known as parylene, is a highly versatile family of polymers used in many conformal coating applications. At present, there are a wide range of parylene variants available on the market – types N, C, D, F(VT-4), and F(AF-4) – each with their own unique thermal, dielectric, and mechanical properties. Despite all…

Read MoreOverview: The Portability Kit from Avantes was created as an example to show off the portability and versatility of the AvaSpec-Mini and its usefulness in mobile/in the field applications. The Field Kit combines an irradiance calibrated AvaSpec-Mini spectrometer with a direct attach cosine corrector. This kit measures in at 9” x 6.5” x 3”. The…
Read MoreConducted by: David Ademe (Applications Engineer), Avantes Inc. Background/Applications: Spectral irradiance is the energy of a surface per unit frequency or wavelength, depending on whether the spectrum is taken as a function of frequency or of wavelength. The two forms have different dimensions: spectral irradiance of a frequency spectrum is measured in watts per square…
Read MoreAbsorption spectroscopy is a powerful technique used to identify and quantify a wide range of analytes since the absorption bands directly correlate to electronic or vibrational energy level transitions. Most molecular vibrations tend to have very low transition energies between 0.05 and 0.5eV, corresponding to wavelengths from 2.5 mm to 25 mm. While low energy,…
