  • Vacuum Ultra Violet Monochromator I Grating & OEM
    Feature Article JY Division nformation Vacuum Ultra Violet Monochromator I Grating & OEM Erick Jourdain Abstract Taking the advantage of Jobin Yvon(JY) leading position in the design and realisation of diffraction grating JY has developed over the last past 30 years some of the most innovative Vacuum Ultra Violet (VUV) monochromators for synchrotron centre. These monochromators, which combine the ultimate advanced diffraction grating technologies and some ultra precise under vacuum mechanics, have been installed in several synchrotron centres and have demonstrated superior performances. Today the development of new compact VUV sources and applications require compact VUV monochromators. Based on diffraction grating capabilities and our large experience acquired in the difficult and demanding market of under vacuum synchrotron monochromators JY is currently developing new compact monochromators for application such as Extreme UV lithography or X-ray Photoemission Spectroscopy. Introduction In the middle of the seventies thank to the development of the aberration corrected holographic toroidal gratings at Jobin Yvon (JY) we introduced on the market a new VUV monochromator concept that drastically enhanced the spectroscopic performances in this field [1]. During the eighties the Toroidal Grating Monochromator (TGM) and its associated toroidal gratings had a large and world wide success. At that time most of the synchrotron VUV beamline got equipped with this monochromator type and even today some recent beamline are still been developed Fig.

  • 1. What Is the Difference Between Slit and Monochromator? a Slit Is A
    1. What is the difference between slit and monochromator? A slit is a mechanical opening in a black painted metallic sheet, with a circular or triangular hole through which incident rays pass which lead to a monochromator. The slit permits passage of only a small fraction of incident radiation, which is selected for further processing such as wavelength selection and detection etc. Usually the output of the radiation is in the image of the slit. When the slit is wide relative to the wavelength, diffraction is difficult to observe. But when the wavelength and slit opening are of the same order of magnitude, diffraction is observed easily. Here the slit behaves as if it is a source of radiation. The output in this case occurs in a series of 1800 arcs. The plot of the frequency of the radiation as a function of peak transmittance is in the form of a Gaussian curve with maximum intensity being the midpoint of the frequency range. In contrast, monochromator may be defined as a device to select different wavelength of the original source radiation. Usually monochromators used in a UV-Visible/Fluorescence/AAS refer to the combination of slits, lenses, mirrors, windows, prisms and gratings. The output of monochromator is also a narrow band of continuous radiation. The band width is an inverse measure of the quality of the monochromator device. The band widths obtained from filters, prisms, gratings etc., become progressively narrower in each case. 2. Where is the monochromator being placed between source and sample or sample and detector in UV visible spectrophotometer? In a UV- Visible spectrophotometer, the monochromator is placed between the source of light and the sample.

  • A Double Beam Spectrometer
    A Double Beam Spectrometer A QuickTime movie and a (soundless) GIF animation are both available that illustrate the workings of a double beam spectrophotometer. Introduction The following is a brief description of a double beam spectrophotometer. The purpose of this instrument is to determine the amount of light of a specific wavelength absorbed by an analyte in a sample. Although samples can be gases or liquids, an analyte dissolved in a solvent is discussed here. [In the infrared, solid pellets using an IR. transparent matrix (like a high purity salt such as Kr) can be used for solid analytes. Thin disks are made using a pellet press and the disk suspended in the sample cell through which the sample beam passes.] The starting point in our movie is the light source. Depending on the wavelength of interest, this can be an electrically powered ultraviolet, visible, or infrared lamp. Not shown in the animations that accompany this page is the spectrophotometer's monochromator which selects the analytical wavelength from the source lamp's broad spectrum containing many wavelengths of light. The analytical wavelength is chosen based on the absorbance characteristics of the analyte. Monochromators are instruments whose sole purpose is to allow polychromatic (that is many wavelength containing) light into the entrance slit of the monochromator and only allow a single (or at least very few) wavelength (monochromatic light) out via the exit slit. This exiting, well-shaped, narrowly-defined beam now contains a small region of the electromagnetic spectrum. The spread, or band-pass, of the wavelengths depends on the slit settings of the monochromators (usually adjustable) and the quality of the light dispersing element in the monochromator (usually a grating in most modern monochromators).

  • What-Is -Ft-Ir.Pdf
    What is FT‐IR? Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is a chemical analytical technique, which measures the infrared intensity versus wavelength (wavenumber) of light. Based upon the wavenumber, infrared light can be categorized as far infrared (4 ~ 400cm‐1), mid infrared (400 ~ 4,000cm‐1) and near infrared (4,000 ~ 14,000cm‐1). Infrared spectroscopy detects the vibration characteristics of chemical functional groups in a sample. When an infrared light interacts with the matter, chemical bonds will stretch, contract and bend. As a result, a chemical functional group tends to adsorb infrared radiation in a specific wavenumber range regardless of the structure of the rest of the molecule. For example, the C=O stretch of a carbonyl group appears at around 1700cm‐1 in a variety of molecules. Hence, the correlation of the band wavenumber position with the chemical structure is used to identify a functional group in a sample. The wavenember positions where functional groups adsorb are consistent, despite the effect of temperature, pressure, sampling, or change in the molecule structure in other parts of the molecules. Thus the presence of specific functional groups can be monitored by these types of infrared bands, which are called group wavenumbers. The early‐stage IR instrument is of the dispersive type, which uses a prism or a grating monochromator. The dispersive instrument is characteristic of a slow scanning. A Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer obtains infrared spectra by first collecting an interferogram of a sample signal with an interferometer, which measures all of infrared frequencies simultaneously. An FTIR spectrometer acquires and digitizes the interferogram, performs the FT function, and outputs the spectrum.

  • A Monochromator Is to Produce a Single Spectral Line from a Broadband (Multi-Wavelength) Source
    Tunable Monochromator Introduction The job of a monochromator is to produce a single spectral line from a broadband (multi-wavelength) source. In spectrom- eters, this can be used to collect light from an atomic emission source, like the atomic emission detector, and allow only a specific line to exit. It can also be used to isolate a single line from a light source such as a hollow cathode lamp. The simple monochromator shown here is called a Czerny-Turner mono- chromator; however, other types are common. Source The instrument described here assumes that the input light is from a white light (a broadband source); although, many different inputs from which individual lines can be isolated are possible: a flame along with a hollow cathode lamp—as in AAS, a plasma—as in an atomic absorption spec- trometer, an ultraviolet source—as in a UV/Vis spectrometer, or in a fluorescence spectrometer, emission from a fluorescing sample. Entrance and Exit slits The purpose of the two slits in this monochromator is to control the size and “position” of the beam of light passing through the slit. On the way in, the entrance slit makes sure that only a small area of the input beam passes into the monochromator and that the light waves are relatively paral- lel coming from the source. Since the light will be carefully allowed to shine (flow?) among the mirrors and a grating inside the monochromator, parallel beams insure alignment of the light beams with the internal optics and cut down on stray light that might end up where it’s not wanted.

    Chem 321 Lecture 19 - Spectrophotometry 11/5/13 Student Learning Objectives UV-VIS Spectrophotometers The basic components of a spectrophotometer are shown in Figure 12.6. Figure 12.6 Schematic diagram of a single-beam spectrophotometer The radiation source depends on which region of the electromagnetic spectrum is being used. Visible (VIS) radiation (~400-750 nm) is usually provided by a tungsten lamp. This consists of a heated filament of tungsten that produces continuous radiation throughout the visible and near-IR regions. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is usually provided by a deuterium lamp. An electric discharge in a low pressure sample of deuterium produces continuous emissions from about 200-400 nm. The emission profiles of these two radiation sources are shown in Figure 12.7. Both lamps are employed in a UV-VIS spectrophotometer and a switch is made around 360 nm to the lamp with the greater emission intensity. Figure 12.7 Emission spectrum for a tungsten lamp and a deuterium lamp Spectrophotometry 11/5/13 page 2 Since these sources are continuous, a small range of wavelengths must be selected for passage through the sample in order for Beer’s law to apply. This is accomplished by the monochromator. As diagramed in Figure 12.8, continuous radiation from the source enters the monochromator through a slit and the radiation reflects off a diffraction grating where it is dispersed (spread out). After focusing, only a small band of radiation emerges from the exit slit of the monochromator. By varying the orientation of the diffraction grating with respect to the incoming radiation, a different wavelength can be selected for passage through the monochromator.
