Celebrating its’ thirtieth yr in enterprise, Minus Okay Know-how has to-date granted over $65,000 of its superior performing patented Destructive-Stiffness low-frequency vibration isolators by their U.S. Academic Giveaway.
This yr Minus Okay congratulates the next winners for the 2022/2023 giveaway:
College of Wisconsin, River Falls – Physics Division
The vibration isolator can be used with their Nanomagnetics ezAFM+ for analyzing pupil samples made with thermally evaporated skinny movies and photo-lithography.
College of Arkansas – Chemistry and Biochemistry Division
The vibration isolator can be used with their home-built versatile scanned electrochemical probe microscope for scanning electrochemical cell microscopy (SECCM), scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM), scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM).
College of California, Irvine – Beckman Laser Institute – Biomedical Engineering Division
The vibration isolator for use for Spectrally Encoded Interferometric Microscopy (SEIM) system to attain excessive pace on-face imaging as an alternative of tomographic imaging.
College of California, Irvine – Beckman Laser Institute
The vibration isolator can be used for Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) imaging, every excessive decision picture takes about 2-4 minutes. The OCT photos can be used to create a 3D reconstruction.
Stanford College – Music, Heart for Pc Analysis in Music and Acoustics Division
The vibration isolator can be used with a laser Doppler vibrometer augmented with a DIY mirror Galvo system to measure musical devices to review their design and use measurements for synthesis algorithms.
We’re excited to restart our academic giveaway after pausing it for the pandemic.”, says Minus Okay’s President Steve Varma, “It’s a nice feeling to assist all these schools with their analysis as we have a good time our seventh yr of granting our vibration isolators to U.S. schools and universities. We’re at all times serious about seeing what functions and the way the isolators can be used.”
