B.I.Stepanov Institute of Physics of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus offers consumers optical coherence tomography installations «OKTEM» for research in the field of microelectronics and medicine under a manufacturing agreement and is looking for partners interested in a distribution services agreement.

B.I.Stepanov Institute of Physics of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus manufactures «OKTEM» installations that allows non-contact registration of spectral- and polarization-contrast tomographic images of semiconductor and dielectric materials, as well as biological tissues possessing transparency region in IR-range, and evaluation of the morphology and functional state of the object according to these images.

The «OKTEM» installation is implemented as a set of active and passive hardware modules, which makes it easy to configure the installation for a wide range of planned tasks.

The «OKTEM» installation has the following features:
* wide spectral range;
* high spatial resolution;
* detection of low-contrast defects;
* increased sensitivity and performance;
* determination of the morphological properties of the object;
* miniaturization, mobility and flexibility of OCT probes;
* the possibility of developing mobile diagnostic systems;
* investigations on diagnostics of diseases and degree of - investigations on diagnostics of diseases and degree of invasion of the skin;
* control of the internal structure of materials and products semi-transparent in IR- range.
