OSRAM Opto Semiconductors to Showcase Infrared Imaging Technology Expertise at Photonics West 2005.SAN JOSE San Jose, city, United States San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850. , Calif. -- Company Presents Three Technology Conference Papers and Exhibits Advances in LED and Laser Diode 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 Technology OSRAM Opto Semiconductors continues to build on its reputation as a leader in imaging technology for a wide array of emerging applications as it announces its new, high-powered laser offering and demonstrates its technological expertise during the Photonics West 2005 conference and exposition. The conference, scheduled from January 22 through January 27th at the San Jose Convention Center, is North America's largest exhibition on optics, lasers, biomedical bi·o·med·i·cal adj. 1. Of or relating to biomedicine. 2. Of, relating to, or involving biological, medical, and physical sciences. optics, optoelectronic components and imaging technologies. "We are delighted to demonstrate our commitment to innovative imaging technology by showcasing our infrared (IR) component and light-emitting diode (LED) expertise during this prestigious industry event," said Tom Shottes, president and chief executive officer, OSRAM Opto Semiconductors Inc. "It is our hope that by sharing our technology through papers presentations and compelling exhibits we can further accelerate interest in imaging technology applications and highlight our work in this critical area." On Display in OSRAM Booth #427 OSRAM Opto Semiconductors will showcase achievements in both infrared laser and LED technology. OSRAM's newest laser technology offers innovative breakthroughs in self-cooled laser diode arrays. The OSRAM Sirilas(TM) SPL (1) (Systems Programming Language) The assembly language for the HP 3000 series. See assembly language for an SPL program example. (2) (Structured Programming Language) See structured programming. 1. LG81, the company's new cost-effective, high-reliability laser solution, meets the growing demands of today's marketplace by offering designers a unique micro-channel cooler and higher output power of up to 30W cw. These features are all available in a newly developed, component-style TO263 package. OSRAM's Sirilas SPL LG81 is ideal for existing and emerging solid-state pumping, material processing, illumination and industrial applications. Demonstrations on display include those in association with DILAS Diodenlaser GmbH and Pursuit Technology Inc. LED exhibits include the new environmentally friendly Environmentally friendly, also referred to as nature friendly, is a term used to refer to goods and services considered to inflict minimal harm on the environment.[1] OSTAR OSTAR Ontario Small Town and Rural Program OSTAR Observer Singlehanded Trans-Atlantic Race (sponsored by UK newspaper Observer) OSTAR Order and Shipping Time Analysis Report solution, a compact, high-power LED that offers more than 120 lumens output and measures 28mm x 15mm in a low-profile package. Designed for miniature projection, head-up automotive displays and industrial applications, this product is setting new records in brightness levels and size. The company will also exhibit its Golden DRAGON(TM) LED, the first lead (Pb)-free, surface-mount package (SMT (1) (Surface Mount Technology) See surface mount.
