Dear reader, In this Ibsen Photonics Newsletter we address a wealth of different applications across all our product lines. For instance, the first section on our high efficiency PING gratings addresses such wide application areas as telecom wavelength selective switching, Raman spectroscopy, optical coherence tomography, and fiber optical sensing. With one of the unique advantages of our fused silica transmission gratings being unmatched energy and power handling capabilities, this newsletter will include an update on the latest field results on this subject, which is especially relevant for users of our Phase masks and pulse compression gratings. The section on our

Copenhagen, Denmark – March 7th, 2011 Ibsen Photonics (www.ibsenphotonics.com), a global leader in fused silica transmission gratings and spectrometer modules, today announced the launch of the ROCK VIS-NIR and XNIR line of industrial grade, robust OEM spectrometers for the 550 - 1050 nm and 1175 – 2185 nm wavelength ranges, respectively. The ROCK spectrometers typically enable 4 times higher optical throughput than traditional spectrometers due to a low f-number of f/2.2 and the use of Ibsen Photonics’ highly efficient transmission gratings manufactured using the company’s proprietary, high volume manufacturing process. The ROCK VIS-NIR can be supplied with almost any detector
