Scitec Instruments has introduced a new 4W wire wound IR source suitable for use in laboratory or field instrumentation due to its long life and stable properties.
The Platinum Dragon LED produces white light at 75lm from an operating current of 700mA (30lm/W), making it the brightest single-chip high-power LED in the Dragon series from Osram.
Sill Optics has introduced a variable LED dimmer for use with condensors, lenses with coaxial surface illumination and other LEDs with current limiting and current consumption between 50mA and 450mA.
Pacer Components has introduced the OVTL09LGA LEDNIUM series of high-luminance, 10W LED sources from Optek. The series is used in the automotive interior and exterior lighting, and architectural lighting markets.
Edmund Optics has introduced its new illumination delivery technology, EOS, to create new opportunities for the use of LEDs in automotive headlamps, scientific instrument lighting and surgical headlamps.
Pacer Components has launched a high-power, miniature, surface mount infrared LED and phototransistor range, providing numerous application opportunities including industrial controls, portable and automotive electronics and non-contact position sensing.
StockerYale has introduced the UV Cobra Linescan Illuminator, which emits at 375nm and 395nm, and is based on StockerYale’s unique, patented chip-on-board reflective array (COBRA) technology.
Pacer Components has introduced a range of high-brightness, square, visible LEDs manufactured by Optek Technology. The high-power OVF series is ideally suited to a wide variety of roles that include signage, automotive, traffic control, decorative and lan

Illustration of a three-dimensional crystal with various types of confining centres. (a) Crystal with four confining centres, each trapping waves (yellow) in all three dimensions simultaneously. (b) Crystal with a linear confining centre where waves can propagate in one dimension, analogous to an optical fibre. (c) Crystal with a planar confining centre where waves can propagate in two dimensions, analogous to a 2D electron gas. (Image: Vos et al.)
