Microprocessor automation of a UV-visible monochromator

Microprocessor automation of a UV-visible monochromator

Introduction Isolation of selected wavelengths of light with high resolution grating monochromators is a common operation in spectrochemical methods of analysis. Commercial monochromators and monochromator controllers are often unable to control the monochromator’s operating parameters with the resolution required in automated systems. If a monochromator is to be used in a completely automated ...

A stigmatic ultraviolet-visible monochromator for use with a high brightness laser driven plasma light source.

Laser driven plasma light sources offer highly intense output in the UV-visible region combined with a source size as small as 100 μm. In order to effectively use the small source size in high brightness applications, a stigmatic monochromator and focusing system must be used. Here we describe a simple brightness preserving optical system that should be useful across a broad range of applicatio...
