New FlexRes® oscilloscopes deliver flexible resolution, deep capture memory and mixed signal capability in a USB 3.0 PC connected instrument. Pico Technology, market leader in PC oscilloscopes and data loggers, today introduced the PicoScope 5000D Series FlexRes oscilloscopes and MSOs that feature up to 16 bits of vertical resolution with up to 200 MHz bandwidth and 1 GS/s sampling speed...

Thomas Horseman, Mehdi Tajvidi , Cherif I. K. Diop , Douglas J. Gardner   Lignocellulose nanofibrils (LCNF) were produced from thermo-mechanical pulp (TMP) using a micro-grinder and were characterised with respect to fibre diameter and thermal stability. The initial water content in the TMP affected the defibrillation process and longer grinding time was necessary for the airdried TMP, resulting in...

The BGA244 Binary Gas Analyser, a winner of the 2016 R&D 100 award, can measure the ratio of two gases in a binary mixture or the purity of a single gas. It contains a comprehensive database of nearly 500 different gases allowing measurements on more than 50,000 different mixtures. Measurement accuracy depends on the gas species being measured, but is typically better than...

From Stanford Research Systems (SRS), the recently launched FS740 Time and Frequency system is much more than just a 10MHz frequency reference.  With powerful capabilities and eye-catching performance it is a highly cost effective and multi-functional lab tool. The SRS FS740’s GPS disciplined 10MHz reference delivers caesium equivalent stability and phase noise, but for a fraction of the cost. A...

With the 48 MP global shutter CMOS sensor CMV50000 from ams (CMOSIS) Lambda Photometrics is now shipping the LX series with Dual GigE (LXG) and CameraLink (LXC). The cameras have outstanding high resolution, very good image quality and high frame rates of up to 15 fps. The further extension of the LX series takes place throughout 2018 based on the...

Up to 20 megapixel in 29 x 29 mm design for cost-oriented applications: CX and EX series add ten new models with rolling shutter sensors 10 new models with rolling shutter sensors were added to the successful CX and EX Baumer camera series which now offers resolutions with 20 and 10 megapixel, respectively. Baumer expands the successful CX and EX...

Acousto-Optic Beam Modulators and Deflectors Control Laser Beams in Many Applications. by John Lekavich, Director, IntraAction Acousto-Optics, the interaction of sound waves and light in a transparent medium, has proven an effective means of amplitude-modulating, deflecting, or shifting the optical frequency of laser light. When a transparent medium is subject to a stress, the optical refractive index of the medium...

Never Miss a Signal Today’s RF designs utilise rapidly changing and pulsing signals that are difficult to consistently capture on traditional swept spectrum analysers. The Rigol RSA5000 delivers a class leading 7.45µsec 100% probability of intercept meaning that any pulse with a duration of greater than 7.45µsec will be captured and accurately displayed. Isolate & Capture IoT Device proliferation means...

The Ultra High Resolution OSA (UHR-OSA) proposed by APEX Technologies remains a very important tool not only to measure the optical OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) signal spectrums even with few tens of MHz spacing sub-carriers but also to adjust and adapt it to other modulation techniques. APEX-UHR-OSA incessant need in OFDM research area APEX UHR-OSAs have found a wide industrial and...
