Accent Announces New University-Focused DiVA Product.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers BEND, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 5, 2003 Accent Optical Technologies (www.accentopto.com), a leading supplier of optoelectronics, wireless and silicon semiconductor process control systems, today announced the latest addition to its DiVA product line, the D210E. This model was created specifically for the University community, which needs dynamic (pulsed) IV capability in their undergraduate and graduate laboratories for studying semiconductor devices, device modeling, RF and other high frequency EDA-centric application design. Graham Riley, Product Marketing Director, DiVA said, "Students today need to fully understand the characteristic of the devices they work with, and fast pulse IV is a well understood method for providing key insights. Where they exist, current pulsed IV solutions tend to be large and relatively slow, and often reserved exclusively for graduate level programs and research. DiVA speaks directly to these needs." In order to make pulsed IV more broadly available, the University community challenged Accent to give them a product with sufficient capability at a price point compatible with University budgets. Accent's design team worked with these goals in mind, and was able to find an innovative approach that led to the D210E. This model maintains flexibility, is able to handle a broad spectrum of moderate size FET FET: see transistor. (Field Effect Transistor) One of two major categories of transistor; the other is bipolar. FETs use a gate element that, when charged, creates an electromagnetic field that changes the conductivity of a silicon and Bipolar (1) See bipolar transmission. (2) One of two major categories of transistor; the other is "field effect transistor" (FET). Although the first transistors and first silicon chips were bipolar, most chips today are field effect transistors wired as CMOS logic, which devices, and uses pulse lengths short enough to clearly show the effects of thermal and trap based dispersion dispersion, in chemistry dispersion, in chemistry, mixture in which fine particles of one substance are scattered throughout another substance. A dispersion is classed as a suspension, colloid, or solution. . "We are confident that the D210E is an extremely capable learning tool that suits our University colleagues' needs," states Riley.

Accent Optical Technologies (www.accentopto.com) is a leading supplier of optoelectronic and silicon process control systems. The company's legacy dates backs over 300 years to its optical instrument manufacturing roots in York, England. It serves leading manufacturers of laser diodes A semiconductor-based laser used to generate analog signals or digital pulses for transmission through optical fibers. Both laser diodes and LEDs (light-emitting diodes) are used for this purpose, but the laser diode generates a smaller beam that is easier to couple with the smaller core , VCSELs, HBTs and high electron mobility Electron Mobility In physics, electron mobility (or simply, mobility), is a quantity relating the drift velocity of electrons to the applied electric field across a material, according to the formula: transistors and supplies optical CD measurement, thin film characterization and optical lithography lithography (lĭthŏg`rəfē), type of planographic or surface printing. It is distinguished from letterpress (relief) printing and from intaglio printing (in which the design is cut or etched into the plate). feedback control systems to leading silicon device manufacturers.
