Hamamatsu Photonics is pleased to announce that the latest issue of the Hamamatsu News is now available for you to read on-line here.

The cover story, ‘Photonics and the Fight Against Covid-19’, explores the contributions Photonics technologies have played in the global fight against coronavirus (Sars-Cov-2), focusing on techniques such as PCR and medical imaging.

In addition, an overview of Hamamatsu’s latest product offerings are included, such as our new-generation CMOS cameras for scientific measurement – ORCA-Fusion, the latest LD irradiation Light Source SPOLD and the world’s smallest, thinnest and lightest PMT.

The issue also features a recent R&D interview focusing on Hamamatsu’s new Triode MCP Assembly, developed for use in mass spectrometers, which has overturned the accepted view that MCPs cannot be used at low vacuum levels.

Other topics include:

  • SiPM Technology Increases the Safety of Charged Particle Therapy through Improved Beam Range Verification
  • Ambient Light Sensor Calibration with Tunable Light Sources
  • Compound Opto-semiconductor that can detect up to 14.4µm
  • Empowering Breakthroughs with Light at Photonics West 2020
