Oxford Imaging Detectors has been set up by the University's technology transfer company Isis Innovation.
Initially focussed for use in electron microscopy, the detectors were developed by the research group lead by Professor Angus Kirkland at the University's Department of Materials.
Statement of Agnus Kirkland
"These detectors coupled to state of the art imaging instruments are one of the most powerful tools in a scientist's toolkit. Materials scientists, chemists, biologists and physicists increasingly need to examine objects at the atomic level. The Oxford Imaging Detectors' products will support critical research in diverse areas spanning automotive catalysis, molecular medicine and new engineering nanomaterials."
