MTI Instruments’ Accumeasure HD System Proven to Be Highest Resolution Capacitance System in the World. The results were recently published in a white paper by Kevin Harding of Optical Metrology Solutions. Harding’s white paper can be accessed on MTI Instruments’ website. Harding’s independent study confirmed the findings of an internal experiment by MTI Instruments that concluded the Accumeasure HD system can provide picometer-level accuracy when used with 50-micron HD capacitive probes.

ColdQuanta, the leader in Cold Atom Quantum Technology, has been awarded two development contracts from U.S. Government agencies worth $2.55M in total. Both projects are based on the company’s Quantum Core™ technology that uses atoms cooled to a temperature of nearly absolute zero, and lasers to manipulate and control the atoms with extreme precision.
QuickFreeze® (by Tippmann Engineering) made in the U.S.A., is equipment driving innovation in the cold chain. The latest innovation, QFM, was issued its first patent, patent #10,921,043. The QFM, released in 2019, allows cold storage providers and food production facilities to freeze (temper, chill, etc…) palletized products faster than ever before.
A new invention that uses sunlight to drive water purification could help solve the problem of providing clean water off the grid. The device resembles a large sponge that soaks up water but leaves contaminants – like lead, oil and pathogens – behind. To collect the purified water from the sponge, one simply places it in sunlight. The researchers described the device in a paper(link is external) published this week in the journal Advanced Materials.
Azzur Cleanrooms on Demand™, a market-leading provider for early-phase life sciences GxP manufacturing, recently completed the design and construction of their second facility. The new facility is located in Vista, California. The Grand Opening and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for this new facility will take place on Thursday, April 29th. Event begins at 11:00am with introductory remarks, immediately followed by the formal ribbon cutting.
Bright semiconductor nanocrystals known as quantum dots give QLED TV screens their vibrant colors. But attempts to increase the intensity of that light generate heat instead, reducing the dots’ light-producing efficiency.
