Spectroscopy Engine turns portable instruments into NRI systems.
February 3, 2010 -
Designed for homeland security and laboratory research applications, iGEM(TM) can convert any handheld instrument into high-resolution Nuclear Radiation Identification (NRI) system. It includes eV-CZT(TM) detector crystal, preamplifier/shaping amplifier ASIC, 12-bit ADC (MCA), and microprocessor. Consuming 150 mW and operating at room temperature, module employs non-hygroscopic sensor and is capable of entering sleep mode. It can be accommodated by various sensor platforms.
