Artium Technologies, Inc. was founded with the goal of developing and commercializing advanced laser-based diagnostics for environmental and health related applications. It was founded in 1998 by Dr. Bachalo and other key technical staff from his former company, Aerometrics, Inc. While at Aerometrics, this team invented and successfully commercialized the Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer (PDPA) for characterizing spray drop size distributions, drop dynamics, volume flux, number density, and the gas phase turbulence parameters. Today, this instrument is considered to be the worldwide standard for characterizing sprays in a wide range of environments.

Artium received its first SBIR contract from NASA Lewis in 1998 to support the development of the Laser Induced Incandescence (LII) instrument for soot characterization. Over the next several years, we continued to receive SBIR support from NASA, EPA and NIST to further advance this technology and develop it into a commercial product, the LII-200. Artium also partnered with Islet Technology of Minnesota with the goal of developing islet encapsulation for diabetes cure. With the support of SBIR funding, Artium has also successfully developed and commercialized a line of Phase Doppler Interferometry (PDI) products for spray characterization and has also developed the PDI Cloud Probe.
