3D sensor technology has developed into a ‘game-changer’ for smart products using vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) as efficient light sources. VCSEL-based sensor technology supports applications such as AI, internet-of-things (IoT), and AR/VR technologies. It also simplifies the integration of smart systems into our everyday chores. However, because VCSELs have special properties, their characterization is more complex than that of other typical laser sources.

The use of this photonic technology is also reaching galactic boundaries! As unprecedented high speed intra-satellite data transfers used in space communications grow rapidly so does the need for increased research of VCSEL applications for next generation spacecrafts.

Learn more about the challenges of spectral measurement of laser diodes with a defined error budget and traceability by visiting our VCSEL industry page and watch an interactive VCSEL video highlighting Instrument Systems GmbH's portfolio of VCSEL instruments.

June Newsletter- Lighting

 

Summer solstice is recognized and celebrated worldwide by many cultures. This year summer solstice will occur on June 21st 2022. This is when earth's rotation has the North Pole at its maximum tilt toward the sun, making it the longest day of the year, and allowing us to enjoy the sunlit day a little longer. But did you know that on the opposite side of the world, the southern hemisphere recognizes the June solstice as indicating the start of winter? There the sun is at the lowest point in the sky and is considered the shortest day of the year. Some companies are recreating 'windows' that duplicate the daylight sky through the use of lighting so that no matter where your location or your climate is you will be able to tune into a sunlit drenched day using an 'indoor window'. To read more about this read our blog "Here Comes the Sun!" and see how Instrument System's CAS-120 Array Spectroradiometer instrument along with EOP-120 Optical Probe is used in measuring these LED systems.

April Newsletter

The displays of immersive virtual reality (VR) devices generate images in an extremely broad field of vision. Today some VR glasses cover the entire horizontal field of vision of the human eye. To enable realistic measurements, an imaging system must therefore capture all areas of the virtual image.

The close proximity of the display to the eye also magnifies display defects, making them more prominent to the wearer. At the same time, the resolution of these displays is constantly increasing, with the aim of creating an illusion that is as near as possible to reality. To ensure reliable results, measuring instruments require excellent resolution, if possible at pixel level.

The more similar the measuring instruments mimic the human eye, the better the entire field of vision and the relevant defects can be recognized. Wish to learn more about the role of pupil-size spot measurement?

Laser diodes have become indispensable in many industries. They have led to new and exciting applications and technologies, including facial and gesture recognition in consumer electronics, LiDAR (light detection and ranging) in cars, and material processing using high-performance diode lasers. VCSELs (vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers) are replacing EELs (edge-emitting lasers) within these new applications and technologies. Instrument Systems, a division of Konica Minolta Sensing, characterizes VCSEL arrays, including polarization analysis.

A question asked by many is, how to measure VCSEL arrays? By measuring VCSEL single emitters and arrays in the near and far-field, one can characterize VCSEL pulses, spectra, power and now even polarization. However, measuring systems for laser diodes must satisfy particular requirements. Learn more about these requirements and the challenges of spectral measurement of laser diodes with a defined error budget and traceability by visiting our VCSEL industry page.

When determining a measurement an important question is "Are we really measuring the just area we believe we are measuring?" If you do not have faith in the measurements, obtained then the value of the data given will be of little use. It is important to know that the repeatability and accuracy of an instrument is consistent so that the overall cost of errors reduced to a minimum. Once such way is thru using instruments that hold ISO certifications.

When you obtain calibration service of  ISO-17025 from Konica Minolta, your instrument will have the calibration standards and tools associated with the ISO-17025 calibration process and are certified by ISO-17025 accredited metrology labs. You will also receive a statement of uncertainty included in the calibration certificate, giving you a higher degree of certainty of how much the reported calibration data of the device tested may vary from the known actual value of the calibration standard measured.

December Aerospace Newsletter

Displays used in aerospace applications require high contrast ratios, demanding the displays to be legible in both a sunlit cockpit and in complete darkness during an evening flight. A high luminance back-lit display is needed to be easily readable during both environments. These displays can face extreme temperature and pressure changes. Thus, making the need for imaging and photometers, and colorimeters quite important. The need for simultaneous evaluation of an entire image, providing uniformity measurements, and integrated image processing functions all within short measurement cycles and within a compact design is also essential. Learn more about our full line of light and display instruments available for use in the aerospace industry.

November 2021 Newsletter

In the last few years UV-LEDs have become an attractive alternative to conventional UV lamps. They are now smaller, inexpensive and can be used more efficiently extending its usage in applications such as water treatment plants, air sterilization, hardening, coating, surface inspection or lighting for indoor gardening.

It is necessary for the spectral properties of the UV-LED to be sufficient for the respective application being evaluated. Accurate knowledge of the emitted spectrum of UV-LEDs are required during the production process for each individual UV-LED.

Due to the sensitivity of UV-LEDs, test methodology plays a key role in providing accurate measurements. Reliable and accurate measurement of the radiant flux of UV-LEDs calls for extremely sensitive optical measurement systems for precise radiometric characterization. Instrument Systems GmbH is pioneering this area of spectral measurements.

Instrument Systems provides a measurement system consisting of an integrating sphere with PTFE-coating and a highly precise spectroradiometer for fast 24/7 quality control.

Our system experts will be pleased to provide competent advice on your particular application. Together we will find the right solution don't hesitate to contact us!

Measurement System
for UV Radiation

Listen to the presentation "Measurement Systems in the UV A/B/C Range" by Denan Konjhodzic, Application Engineer from Instrument Systems GmbH. Discussion will review ho many companies and research institutions today have adopted UV radiation as a tool for their projects and research. With this adoption brings the need for instruments providing reliable measurement of these UV ranges from experts within the field.  Today there exists no reference standard for the total radiant flux in the UVB and UVC spectral region. Instrument Systems addresses this by offering traceable UV LED calibration standards.
