Nordson DAGE’s Explorer one: Compact, Fast and Lead-Free
Continued from page 1
Did you know? Omron has been the trusted partner for inspection for over 30 years
Easily identify the HiP defects Provides clarity for THT defects
quality allows features as small as two microns to be seen, excellent for BGA reflow inspection, PTH solder fill inspection, counterfeit component screening, cable quality inspection, and QFN and QFP solder quality in- spection.
Powerful Software Explorer one leverages
Nordson’s powerful and easy-to-use Gensys® inspec- tion software, developed for the Quadra® series X-ray in- spection systems. This al- lows operators and occasion- al users to perform quality inspections quickly, easily and with minimal training. Real-time image feed-
back ensures users can navi- gate around products and find defects quickly. Auto- mated inspection routines ensure fast throughput when inspecting batches of boards. Fast to install, Explorer one is the company’s smallest and lightest X-ray system with an ultra-compact footprint, achieved without compromising board size. The machine’s double oblique an- gle detector geometry inspects 11.8 x 11.8 in. (300 x 300 mm) boards from every side, making it quick and easy
Explorer one: a compact X-ray inspection system with lead-free shielding.

Coherent Signals in Silicon Chips May Lead to Quantum

inside the samples. This research may lead to quantum computers based on existing silicon devices that can rapidly perform tasks out of the reach of even the fastest supercom- puters now available. The solution to both of the pre-
viously mentioned problems may be quantum computers, which take ad- vantage of the rules of physics that govern very small length scales, such as those of atoms and electrons. In the quantum regime, electrons act more like waves than billiard balls, with positions that are “smeared- out” rather than definite. In addition, various components
can become entangled, such that the properties of each one cannot be com- pletely described without reference to the other. An effective quantum computer must maintain the coher- ence of these entangled states long enough to perform calculations. In the current research, the team used very short laser pulses to excite
electrons inside a silicon crystal. “The use of existing silicon for
quantum computing will make the transition to quantum computers much easier,” says Dr. Yohei Watan- abe, who worked on the project. The energetic electrons created
coherent vibrations of the silicon structure, such that the motions of the electron and the silicon atoms be- came entangled. The state of the system was
then probed after a variable delay time with a second laser pulse. Based on their theoretical mod-
el, the scientists were able to explain oscillations observed in the charge generated as a function of delay time. “This experiment reveals the under- lying quantum mechanical effects governing the coherent vibrations,” says professor Muneaki Hase, who performed the experiments. “In this way, the project represents a first step toward affordable consumer quantum computers.” Web:
