NATO Science for Peace


Implementation of Results
The industrial partners and end-users ("Baltic Scientific Instruments" Ltd, and A/S "RD ALFA Department of Microelectronics", both located in Riga, Latvia, together with LU group) have designed, manufactured and implemented the equipment and methodology for electric field and open surface of sensors and IC optical imaging. Specifically, actively stabilized diode lasers, fine mechanics parts for precise positioning of laser beams, the industry-targeted device including tracer gas camera, sample block, electrodes, illumination and detection blocks have been designed, manufactured, assembled and tested. Some of the above products indicate a prospective for commercial application. All project activities were coordinated with end-users on a monthly basis. The visibility of the project is ensured at conferences, workshops, information exchange visits, exhibitions, as well as via mass media sources (television, press, etc.). Project achievements were presented to the Parliamentary Commission for Education and Science of Latvian Saeima (Parliament) in October, 2005, to the Prime Minister of Latvia and Minister of Education and Science in 2006, promotional video "Sounds Like Latvia". International Workshop "Non-Destructive Electric Field Imaging for Nanoscale Surface Treatment" (Aug 2003), International Conferences "Lasers and Optics in Atomic, Molecular and Nanoscale Physics" (June, 2005) and "Advances in Laser Spectroscopy" (Sept 2006) were held in Riga, with Abstracts and CD distributed. Project products are announced in the booklet for Latvian technology "High Tech in Latvia 2004", as well as in LU and Latvian Academy of Sciences, Imprimatur Capital Baltic Ltd. and other information services.
