White Paper: Expanding The Dynamic Range Of Short Wave Infrared (SWIR) Imagery
1/22/2010
Advances have been made in short wave infrared (SWIR) imaging technology to address the most demanding imaging and surveillance applications. Multiple techniques have been developed and deployed in Goodrich’s SWIR indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) cameras to increase the dynamic range performance of standard, commercial off-theshelf (COTS) products.

Article: NIR Trends: Photoluminescence Inspection Of Photovoltaics With SWIR Imaging
11/9/2009
Contactless machine-vision inspection using photoluminescence (PL) imaging with shortwave infrared (SWIR) cameras can help solar cell producers improve both efficiency and quality of their photovoltaic products. Inspection of silicon bulk ingots, sliced wafers, processed layers, and complete photovoltaic cells is possible with SWIR imaging.

NIR Trends: Maximizing Solar Cell Yield And Efficiency With Machine Vision
7/23/2009
As the first decade of the 21st century draws to a close, the easy oil has been harvested and each new barrel will be more expensive to pull from the ground. With world demand for energy still expanding, and the impact of burning carbon based fuels burdening the atmosphere, the development and installation of efficient renewable energy sources has become crucial.

Technical Article: What You Should Ask Before Investing In A Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) Lens
1/30/2009
The military and industrial communities are investigating shortwave infrared (SWIR) technology for new and improved imaging solutions for a variety of challenging applications. Indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) is a material often used for SWIR imaging due to its high quantum efficiency and low dark current. This advanced InGaAs material makes these detectors the most sensitive imagers that operate in the shortwave IR wavelength range at any given temperature. By MARC HANSEN
