Company Profile for Ion Optics.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers --(BUSINESS WIRE) Ion Optics Ion optics involves the focusing of plasmas and ion streams, usually in mass spectrometry. Electric field manipulation
infrared light, infrared radiation, infrared and absorption wavelengths of a silicon surface. We do this by producing a two-dimensional photonic crystal A nanostructured array of holes used as an optical semiconductor. Just as electronic bandgaps prevent electrons from passing through, photonic crystals create photonic bandgaps that confine light. - on the surface of an ordinary silicon wafer - using standard, high-volume, semiconductor manufacturing techniques. Ion Optics has applied this proprietary technology to create small, accurate, reliable, low power, and low-cost infrared gas sensors to detect toxic and combustible com·bus·ti·ble adj. Capable of igniting and burning. n. A substance that ignites and burns readily. gases in homes, automobiles, public buildings and the work environment. Ion Optics SensorChip(TM) will become pervasive in the market because it will offer the performance of IR sensors in a low cost, mass market addressable Reachable. When something is addressable, it can be identified and manipulated independently of its surroundings. For example, screen pixels and RAM memory are addressable. Each of the screen's picture elements can be individually turned on and off, and each of the memory's bytes can be package. Presently, OEMs in several market segments are lining up to evaluate these gas sensors with follow-on expectation to use these sensors in their systems. We have received over 25 letters of intent to use the product, and purchase orders for early evaluation units. Our first evaluation unit shipped to a customer in Q1 2003, with other units soon to follow.
