Ann Arbor-based Advanced Photonix, Inc. announced last week that their Picometrix T-Ray 2000 has been chosen by Tsinghua University in Beijing, China as the focal point of its investigations into the applications of terahertz technology.
Picometrix, an API company, expects to ship the order within the next two months.
The T-Ray 2000 is a laboratory instrument that produces, detects and analyzes ultra short pulses of terahertz waves. They are used for the research and development of novel imaging and spectroscopy applications in the industrial testing, homeland security, and defense markets.
As the growing company begins to work on the T-Ray 4000, the next generation of their terahertz system, they plan on adding between four and six new positions to their current roster of 160, said company CEO Richard Kurtz.
