A warm welcome to our Spring edition of eNews, spring certainly seems to have been a long time coming but we are enjoying things finally heating up a little in Adelaide.
Winter has remained a busy period at NewSpec:
-
|
Graeme travelled to Laser Munich in June, where he got to play with of a number of new products released by Spectra Physics and Newport.
He also received training on the Femtolaser product lines that joined the Spectra Physics brand earlier in the year.
|
-
|
Andrew R and Gill travelled to M&M in Portland for hands on Hitachi training, followed by a smaller meeting with our North American counterparts; there was also significant sampling of the local microbreweries as we understand it …
|
We look forward to seeing many of you across the country as we attend various conferences and roll out our SEM workshops over the coming months.

|
|
|
|
FEMTOPOWER MULTIPASS AMP ULTRASHORT PULSES, OPTIONAL CEP
|
|
Ultrafast multipass Ti:Sapphire amplifiers designed for the most demanding applications.
Femtopower is the only amplifier proven to consistently provide outstanding CEP stability and highest pulse-to-ASE contrast in a reliable and user-friendly configuration.
When seeded by a CEP4 stabilised Rainbow2 oscillator, the Femtopower generates CEP-stable multi-mJ pulses. When used in conjunction with the Kaleidoscope™ sub-7 fs pulses can be achieved making the Femtopower the ultimate commercial light source for attosecond science.

Element ULTRAFAST OSCILLATOR SEALED, ULTRA LOW NOISE, BROAD BANDWIDTH
|
|
Element™ is a single box, hands-free ultrafast oscillator which features state-of-the-art parameters and the highest stability commercially available. The Element ultrafast single-box oscillator delivers ultrashort pluses down to 10 fs in a single box. Designed for hands-free operation, the Elements various models span a broad range of pulse duration from 10 to 100 fs with average powers up to 1.5W. With optional capabilities including Femtolock™ allowing for accurate repetition rate stabilisation, SHG, fibre delivery and OCT-MPM optional modules enhance the flexibility of this ultra-low noise laser.

TM3030Plus ROADSHOW WHEN IT COUNTS, THINK HITACHI
|
|
NewSpec is providing a series of FREE SEM workshops that include talks on SEM design, theory, basic operation, sample preparation and applications.
Primary focus will be on demonstrating the capability of the TM3030Plus Tabletop Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) (with Oxford EDS) in life sciences and material sciences applications, while also providing significant hands-on time for participants to image their own samples.
Please contact Andrew Richardson for further information on the precise location and format of the workshop that you would like to attend.
If you have a genuine interest in a tabletop SEM and would like to host a workshop and demonstration in your region then please give Andrew Richardson a call (0414 616 454) to discuss what opportunities there may be.
