Red laser loses little excitation efficiency

Posted In: Product Types

Monday, December 22, 2008

A new wavelength has been added to the Visible Fiber Laser series, the VFL 628 nm. Developed as an ideal source for allophycocyanin (APC), Cy5 and Alexa Fluor 647, the 20-200 mW laser permits better sensitivity at the emission end with a broader red detection filter.

P2i showcases liquid repellent nano-coating for hearing aids

Mar 19

At the AudiologyNOW! 2010 show in San Diego next month, UK-based coatings company P2i will display their relatively new Aridion liquid-repellant nano-coating. Designed for exposure to humidity or sweat, the polymer layer is applied by a pulsed ion gas process that lower’s the hearing aid’s surface energy, coaxing water away from delicate components.
