Chem Soc., 1959, 1265 41 42 10 12/05/2019 In spectroscopy, the transmittance T is a measure of the attenuation of a beam of monochromatic light. It is based upon the comparison between the intensities of the transmitted light (I) and the incident light I0. T is expressed as a fraction or a percentage: T = I/I0 or %T = I/I0 ×100 The absorbance (old name optical density) is defined by: Transmittance vs. absorbance A=2−log %T ; A = log T 43 44 • Absorption may be presented as transmittance or absorbance. If the sample Quiz compound does not absorb light of a given wavelength, I = I0. Thus no Calculate the absorbance of the compound when its absorption has occurred, T = 1.0 and A= 0. transmittance is equal 50%. • However, if the sample compound absorbs light then I is less than I0 and the transmittance or absorbance is observed. (T < 1; A > 0) • Most spectrometers display absorbance on the vertical axis, and the commonly observed range is from 0 (100% transmittance) to 2 (1% transmittance). 45 46 11 12/05/2019 UV-VIS spectroscopy equipment 47 48 • Light source. More than one type of source can be used in the same instrument which automatically swaps lamps when scanning between the UV and visible regions: • for the visible region of the spectrum, an incandescent lamp; • for the UV region a deuterium arc lamp (<350nm); • a xenon arc lamp can be used for routine apparatuses. http://devarchive.cnx.org/contents/02e7b3d6-cf47-4c92-a380-d011ce5658b1@1/basics-of-uv-visible-spectroscopy 49 50 12 12/05/2019 As the monochromator gratings the following tools may be used: (a) single concave spherical mirror Photodetectors (b) two spherical concave mirrors system (c) the concave grating • Photodiodes • Phototransistors • Semiconductors • photomultiplier 51 52 Quantitative analysis • The measurements are based upon the Lambert–Beer law which, under certain conditions, links the absorption of the light to the concentration of a compound in solution.

Unlike tungsten lamps, the filament is not the source of light in deuterium lamps. Instead an arc is created from the filament to the anode. The arc created excites the molecular deuterium contained within the bulb to a higher energy state. The deuterium then emits light as it transitions back to its initial state Its continuous spectrum is only from 180 nm to 370 nm. Light Intensity of Tungsten and Deuterium lamps A problem with tungsten lamps is that, during operation, the tungsten progressively vaporizes from the filaments and condenses on the glass envelope.

  • UV-VIS Nomenclature and Units
    IN804 Info Note 804: UV-VIS Nomenclature and Units ​ Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy or ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV/VIS) involves the spectroscopy of photons in the UV-visible region. It uses light in the visible and adjacent ​ near ultraviolet (UV) and near infrared (NIR) ranges. In this region of the electromagnetic ​ spectrum, molecules undergo electronic transitions. This technique is complementary to ​ ​ ​ fluorescence spectroscopy, in that fluorescence deals with transitions from the excited state to the ground state, while absorption measures transitions from the ground state to the excited state. UV/VIS is based on absorbance. In spectroscopy, the absorbance A is defined as: ​ ​ ​ ​ (1) where I is the intensity of light at a specified wavelength λ that has passed through a sample ​ ​ (transmitted light intensity) and I is the intensity of the light before it enters the sample or ​ ​0 incident light intensity. Absorbance measurements are often carried out in analytical chemistry, ​ ​ ​ ​ since the absorbance of a sample is proportional to the thickness of the sample and the concentration of the absorbing species in the sample, in contrast to the transmittance I / I of a ​ ​ ​ ​0 s ample, which varies exponentially with thickness and concentration. The Beer-Lambert law is ​ used for concentration determination. The term absorption refers to the physical process of absorbing light, while absorbance ​ refers to the mathematical quantity. Also, absorbance does not always measure absorption: if a given sample is, for example, a dispersion, part of the incident light will in fact be scattered by the dispersed particles, and not really absorbed. Absorbance only contemplates the ratio of transmitted light over incident light, not the mechanism by which light intensity decreases.

This means it uses light in the visible and adjacent (near-UV and near- infrared [NIR]) ranges. The absorption or reflectance in the visible range directly affects the perceived color of the chemicals involved. In this region of the electromagnetic spectrum, molecules undergo electronic transitions.

The information contained in this publication is subject to change without notice. Printed in Germany 06/00 Publication number 5980-1397E Preface Preface In 1988 we published a primer entitled “The Diode-Array Advantage in UV/Visible Spectroscopy”. At the time, although diode-array spectrophotometers had been on the market since 1979, their characteristics and their advantages compared with conventional scanning spectrophotometers were not well-understood. We sought to rectify the situation. The primer was very well-received, and many thousands of copies have been distributed. Much has changed in the years since the first primer, and we felt this was an appropriate time to produce a new primer. Computers are used increasingly to evaluate data; Good Laboratory Practice has grown in importance; and a new generation of diode-array spectrophotometers is characterized by much improved performance. With this primer, our objective is to review all aspects of UV-visible spectroscopy that play a role in obtaining the best results. Microprocessor and/or computer control has taken much of the drudgery out of data processing and has improved productivity. As instrument manufacturers, we would like to believe that analytical instruments are now easier to operate. Despite these advances, a good knowledge of the basics of UV-visible spectroscopy, of the instrumental limitations, and of the pitfalls of sample handling and sample chemistry remains essential for good results.

In this paper we present the continued development of the miniDOAS, an active differential optical absorption spectroscopy (DOAS) instrument to measure ammonia concentrations in ambient air. The miniDOAS has been adapted for 10 use in the Dutch National Air Quality Monitoring Network. The miniDOAS replaces the life-expired continuous-flow denuder ammonia monitor (AMOR). From September 2014 to December 2015, both instruments measured in parallel before the change from AMOR to miniDOAS was made. The instruments were deployed on six monitoring stations throughout the Netherlands. We report on the results of this intercomparison. Both instruments show a good uptime of ca. 90%, adequate for an automatic monitoring network. Although both instruments 15 produce minute values of ammonia concentrations, a direct comparison on short timescales such as minutes or hours does not give meaningful results, because the AMOR response to changing ammonia concentrations is slow.

  • UV-Vis Spectroscopy
    Ultraviolet and visible spectroscopy Dr. Ahmad Najjar Philadelphia University Faculty of Pharmacy Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences 1st semester, 2020/2021 Spectrophotometry Spectroscopy is a general term referring to the interactions (mainly absorption and emission) of various types of electromagnetic radiation with matter. Spectrophotometry is a method to measure how much a chemical substance absorbs or emits light by measuring the intensity of light (electromagnetic radiation). It refers to the use of light (electromagnetic radiation) to measure chemical concentrations. Electromagnetic spectrum refers to the full range of all frequencies of electromagnetic radiation, which is refers to the waves of the electromagnetic field, propagating through space carrying electromagnetic energy. Electromagnetic radiation Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) has been described in terms of a stream of photons that travel in a wave-like pattern. Each photon contains a certain amount of energy, and all electromagnetic radiations consists of these photons. All electromagnetic radiations travels in a straight line at the Crest Crest speed of light (3 x 108 m/s). The only difference between the various types of electromagnetic radiations is the amount of energy found in the photons. Electromagnetic radiations are described by several terms Trough such as wavelength, frequency, wave number and energy. λ wavelength (units : m,cm, μm, nm) ν 1/λ ν frequency (units of cycles/sec, sec1, Hertz c ν λ ν /ν c ν wavenumber (number of waves per cm; unit : cm1) Energy (E) h ν h h c ν λ 8 1 velocityof light in vacuum c ν λ 3.00 10 m.s h is planck's constant 6.62x10-34 J.s Electromagnetic radiation Crest Crest Electromagnetic wave is also characterized by several fundamental properties, including its velocity, amplitude, phase angle, polarization, and direction of propagation.
