Irvine Sensors Corporation (Nasdaq: IRSN) today announced that one of its existing purchase orders with Optics 1, Inc., of Manchester, New Hampshire, an optical systems designer and manufacturer, has been modified to include initial units of Clip-On Thermal Imager ("COTI") systems to be built under a $37.8 million contract recently awarded to Optics 1 by the Naval Surface Warfare Center of Crane, Indiana. The COTIs to be delivered under the new contract are intended for use by special operations forces. Irvine Sensors will be acting as a subcontractor supplying thermal imagers to Optics 1. John Carson, Irvine Sensors CEO, said, "Once the required delivery schedules of the government customer are fully known, we expect that the amount of our subcontract will ultimately exceed $18 million in support of this job."

Throughout the past few decades, it has been established that people are being damaged by ultraviolet light from the sun, and so we are being encouraged by the medical industry to take protective measures to limit the effect the sun has on our skin and eyes. UV blocking glass is one such way we can protect ourselves from ultraviolet light damage as well as isolating UV light for specific uses.

Scientists of the research group of Prof. Dr. Alfred Meixner and Dr. Dai Zhang from the Institute of Physical and Theoretical Chemistry at the University of Tübingen have developed a near-field microscope that can measure the optical properties of e. g. semiconductor thin films with a spatial resolution and sensitivity long thought unachievable due to fundamental physical laws (diffraction limit). Both the optical spectrum and the topography of a surface can be mapped simultaneously with nanometre precision – a nanometre corresponding to one millionth of a millimetre.
