Ferro & Piezoelectrics

In cooperation with Radiant Technologies USA, Incienta offers innovative and advanced characterization equipment for non-linear electromechanical testing, MEMS, non-volatile memory technologies and actuators/sensors. Radiant pioneered and developed the first ferroelectric test system which quickly became the world-wide industry standard for characterizing non-linear materials. Precision and accuracy has been the driving force behind the engineering of our test equipment and thin ferroelectric film components. Radiant designs its testers to minimize distortion and maximize accuracy.

Vision Data Management Software drives Radiant's test systems. Vision Software allows researchers the simplicity, power and flexibility to take experiments to the next level. Vision offers 155 Tasks in Total. Vision is the only software package available for ferroelectric testers that provides exceptional freedom to design, conduct and review all procedures associated with any material experiment. Vision Software dramatically increases the productivity of the researcher, reducing the time required to acquire data in an experiment. Vision’s enhanced productivity directly reduces cost of test.

Radiant offers a wide range of Precision Non-Linear Test Systems (PiezoMEMS Analyzer, Multiferroic II, Premier II, LCII and RT66C) for material research, development and device qualification. Precision Test Systems vary by Frequency, Sample Area and Voltage (see Precision Tester Comparison Chart Below).
