Ocean Optics, a manufacturer of miniature fiber-optic spectrometers, is to extend its collaboration with New Wave Research, which produces laser-based systems for laser ablation, particle image velocimetry, and semiconductor manufacturing. The two companies have formed a partnership to develop and manufacture a family of advanced laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) products, following a successful collaboration on a high-speed, turnkey LIBS system called LIBS-ELITE. This system incorporates Ocean Optics' high-resolution fiber-optic spectrometers and New Wave Research's Universal Platform laser-ablation product family, and provides real-time, high-resolution spectral analysis of elements in a variety of materials.
