Abstract:
The systems and methods for pathogen reduction in donor blood operates by exposure of blood to UVC irradiation. Unwanted wavelengths of light, mostly in the infrared spectra, may be precluded from reaching blood by providing a layer of IR-absorbing fluid positioned between blood and the source of UV irradiation, whereby minimizing energy absorption and heating of blood. Some embodiments further disclose a system configured to utilize the same IR-absorbing fluid to actively cool blood by flowing along the flow path thereof.
Abstract:
A medical thermometer including a curved mirror and a radiation sensor is disclosed. The radiation sensor is disposed relative to the mirror in a configuration whereby the mirror reflects away from the sensor radiation that passes through the radiation entrance and that is oriented outside a range of angles relative to the mirror, and reflects toward the sensor radiation that passes through the radiation entrance and that is oriented within a range of angles relative to the mirror.

Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein IR-optisches System zur Raketenwarnung, umfassend einen IR-Warnsensor zur Detektion von Raketen aufgrund der IR-Signatur ihrer Abgaswolke im mittleren Infrarot, wobei ein zweiter IR-Sensor vorhanden ist, der für die gleiche IR-Signatur der Abgaswolke empfindlich ist, zur Verifizierung der vom IR-Warnsensor detektierten Ziele. Ein Verfahren zur Detektion unter Einsatz des erfindungsgemäßen optischen Systems ist ebenfalls Gegenstand der Patentanmeldung.
Abstract:
A body surface thermometer and a wearable temperature measuring device are disclosed. The body surface thermometer includes an infrared temperature sensor (10) and a shielding protective hood (20) disposed outside the infrared temperature sensor, and the shielding protective hood (20) is an infrared ray shielding protective hood. With the body surface thermometer, the measuring precision of surface temperature of a target object can be promoted, thereby raising the freedom degree of test.
Abstract:
A light detector includes a cooling device between a photomultiplier tube (PMT) device and a heat sink. A thermally conductive shield encloses the PMT device and the cooling device and is in thermal contact with the heat sink such that the heat sink transfers heat to the shield. The light detector may be included in sample analyzing apparatus configured for making optical measurements of a sample.

Abstract:
An infrared detection unit includes a base carrying an infrared sensor element, and a cap configured to be fitted on the base to surround the infrared sensor element. The cap has a top wall with a window in which a semiconductor lens is fitted to collect an infrared radiation onto the infrared sensor element. The semiconductor optical lens is formed from a semiconductor substrate to have a convex lens and a flange which surround said convex lens. An infrared barrier is formed on the semiconductor lens to block the infrared radiation from passing through the boundary between the circumference of the convex lens and the window. Accordingly, the infrared sensor element can receive only the infrared radiation originating from a detection area intended by the convex lens.
