Buyers guides

Ablation target preparation and testing

  • Applied Test Systems - high-end materials testing and furnaces
  • Futek - Load cells and other sensors
  • MTI Corporation - relatively inexpensive materials science research supplies (furnaces, temp. controllers, crucibles, gloveboxes, benchtop presses, diamond blade saws, ball mills, nanopowders...). Equipment seems generally reliable, but technical support is of little help.
  • Renco Corporation - sells glovebox gloves
  • Thermo Scientific - general lab supplies, including furnaces

Radiation equipment

  • For radiation inspection, non-emergency cleanup, and radiation labels and waste bins, contact Ken Walker at ken_walker@harvard.edu.
  • Atlantic Nuclear - radiation safety: shielding, radiation meters, dosimetry
  • Ludlum Measurements - exhaustive assortment of survey meters
  • Canberra - radiation measurement and safety supplies, including radioisotope samples

Chemicals and materials

Ceramics

Metals

Hardware

  • McMaster
  • [1] - cheap industrial supplies
  • Copper and brass sales - THE copper and brass supplier
  • MSC - When McMaster just won't do
  • RAM mounts - Mounts for scopes and other instruments.
  • Vlier - Screws with Springs inside and more.
  • Air Incorporated - 80/20 supplier. Phone: 800-341-2800. Best to have the cut numbers and location codes (from an 80/20 catalog) ready for any anchor fastener counterboring, etc., before you call.
  • Amazing Magnets - Permanent magnets

Optics

Laser Diodes

  • Sacher
  • Eagleyard - AR coated laser diodes
  • Roither Lasertechnik - Laser diodes, LEDs, Optics,
  • Toptica - Lasers, AR Coated Diodes
  • Intelite/Meshtel - Non-AR Coated Diodes, Sacher gets some of their diodes here before AR Coating
  • Power Technology - Single Mode Diodes, TAs, DFBs and more
  • m2K - Tapered Amplifiers and More
  • FLT Laser - Huge selection including DFBs from many suppliers in addition to their own line
  • Nanoplus - DFBs
  • RPMCLasers - Single Mode diodes and more, not AR
  • Intenseco - I think only Multimode / Broad Area
  • qPhotonics - Single Mode Laser diodes and more. 895-915 nm and 1050-1080 nm diodes are offered with AR coating (for $300-400)
  • Opnext - Make a lot of Non-AR coated diodes
  • Axcel Photonics - Common NIR Laser Diodes
  • Lab351 - Russian Laser Diode Company

Electronics

Vacuum

Cryogenics

Quasi-Optical, Microwaves

mm-wave Microwave Components

  • Quinstar - Large selection of waveguide and coax, ask for Sage Kuno
  • Miteq - Largest supplier (and stock) but more expensive

Detectors, PMTs

Coatings, deposition

Electroplating

Diamond-Turned Optics

Heavy Duty Actuators and Motion Control

Vibration Isolation

Waterjet
