Lake Shore Cryotronics, Westerville, Ohio, released a
comprehensive
catalog for its temperature measure-
ment and control products.
The downloadable catalog
contains detailed specifications and guidance for choos-
ing the best product for various research and industrial
applications. It also provides guidance on choosing sen-
sors and instruments for cryogenic refrigeration systems,
including cryogen and cryogen-free cryostats, dilution re-
frigerators, and superconducting magnet systems.

Plane 160
imaging spectrograph,
said to be the world’s
first compact spectrometer to provide outstanding imag-
ing, high spectral resolution, and excellent light-gathering
power from the vacuum-UV (VUV) to the mid-IR range
without performance tradeoffs. Key benefits of the 160
mm focal length spectrograph include high spectral and
spatial resolution across the entire 27 × 14 mm focal
plane, as well as complete flexibility in resolution and
wavelength range.

Physik Instrumente LP, Auburn, Mass., introduces a new
piezo-Z
nanopositioning system
for imaging and fast fo-
cusing applications, com-
prised of a large-aperture
piezo stage and digital
controller. P-736.ZR large-
aperture, flexure-guided
piezo
nanopositioning
stages are optimized for
high resolution and very fast step and settle, required for
real-time imaging applications. Travel ranges to 220 µm
with sub-nanometer closed-loop resolution are well suited
for surface metrology, microscopy, and imaging applica-
tions. Digital nanopositioning controllers can be quickly
switched between focus tracking and closed-loop posi-
tioning and also accommodate fast focus and freeze ap-
plications.

MCI-2012 IntegraPel from Cortec Corp., St. Paul,
Minn., is an integral
waterproofing and corrosion in-
hibiting admixture
designed to prevent or retard cor-
rosion of steel reinforcement in new concrete
structures. It uses a two-pronged approach to protect
embedded steel and reduce the intrusion of corrosive
species into concrete, and also provides a self-replen-
ishing protective layer on embedded reinforcement
