Aluminum 2018 Alloy (UNS A92018)

Aluminium / aluminum can be easily fabricated into many forms such as sheets, tubes, shapes, foil, rods, and wires. It is known to possess excellent machinability and plasticity in cutting, bending, and drawing. [More]

Aluminum 8111 Alloy (UNS A98111)

Aluminium / aluminum is one of the most widely used metals. It is also one of the most frequently found compounds in the earth's crust. Aluminium / aluminum and its alloys are considered an ideal material choice for a variety of today's important applications. [More]

Copper (UNS C19015)

Copper (Cu) is a metal with several unique properties. It has good resistance to corrosion, excellent ductility, excellent electrical and thermal performance, and is non-magnetic, non-bacterial, and non-sparking. [More]
Introduction to Hyperspectral and Multi-Spectral Imaging

Introduction to Hyperspectral and Multi-Spectral Imaging

Hyperspectral imaging is a high spatial resolution spectral imaging method originally devised for military airborne and space applications. It is utilized to acquire a wavelength intensity map of a scene with superior spatial resolution. [More]

Copper (UNS C19020)

Copper is a non-magnetic antibacterial metal with a reddish brown color. It is easy to alloy, join, and recycle. The properties of copper include ductility, toughness, corrosion resistant, and thermal and electric conductor. [More]
Spectrographs and Image Sensors in Hyperspectral Imaging

Spectrographs and Image Sensors in Hyperspectral Imaging

Maintaining accurate spatial and spectral integrity over a large field of view (FOV) is critical for hyperspectral imaging sensors. This degree of accuracy is crucial to sustain the corresponding purity of data received from each pixel or detector element in the 2D array. [More]
