Spectrometers for when sensitive light detection is required

| By Chemical Engineering

Launched last month at Photonics West (San Francisco), the AvaSpec SensLine spectrometers feature high quantum efficiency, back-thinned CCD (charge-coupled device) detectors and the company’s Straylight optical benches. Two models are released with this line; one for measurements in the ultraviolet (UV) to near infrared (NIR) range (200–1,169 nm) with a 0.91-ms integration time; and another with four times higher sensitivity. The instruments are suitable for applications requiring high-sensitivity light detection, such a fluorescence spectroscopy and low light-level detection. — Avantes BV, Eerbeek, the Netherlands
