"Invisible"
 |
The technology known as "Invisible" is a material, developed by Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste. Only when illuminated by blue radiation of a specific wavelength, produced for instance by a laser or LED, it emits light radiation with a wavelength in a spectral range that is visible to the naked eye. This technology is protected by two patents and its exploitation is related also to the development of two methods to apply this material over objects or more in general surfaces. One of these methods is a sharp flux of ionizing radiation. With the other it can be used as a component of ink or paint. Related Patents

Actual Content Resolution (ACR)
 |
The Actual Content Resolution (ACR) technology is a novel, revolutionary approach to imaging. Recent research in the scientific computing laboratory of Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste developed the ACR concept and an ACR-based encoding method for images that can be used for compression and other purposes such as noise filtering. The core of ACR technology is the new way to measure resolution that goes beyond the standard pixel-count found in most of the existing methods. The ACR technology can have an impact in the broader field of Imaging and more specifically in applications related to photography, television broadcasting, satellite imaging, scientific data, and medical imaging; allowing the reduction of data storage costs and data delivery costs of digital content like photographs and videos.

Method for Quantifying chemical species in a sample by X-Ray Fluorescence
 |
Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste, in the context of the research in the field of instrumentation for the analysis of X-ray fluorescence, has developed an automatic control unit that allows to collect any material on a substrate and measure the X ray fluorescence and quantify in real time particulate matter and all the chemical species (with atomic number greater than 12) present on the same substrate. Therefore, it is possible to collect particulate matters, analyze automatically and in real time their composition and metals in the periodic table, starting from aluminium. This tool provides the possibility to perform investigations on in line production or even on raw materials instantaneously overcoming the limits of sample quality control normally used. Potential applications in the interested of Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste are foreseen in the field of "Air quality monitoring", with particular reference to the compliance of production practices with regulation concerning the protection of human and environment.
