Ocean Optics Can Diversify Spectrometer Applications

Ocean Optics' precision laser-cut slit and aperture assembly technology, replaceable slits provide more freedom in spectrometer design, allowing users to easily convert from one application function by replacing some screws To another application feature.

The design criteria of a spectrometer instrument is the result of repeated weighing of various advantages and disadvantages. The spectrometer is ideal depending on its application. One of the most distressing trade-offs for some users is how to select the entrance slit. Larger slits increase the amount of light, but at the expense of optical resolution. Smaller slits increase optical resolution but reduce the amount of light. In general, to change the slit, it is necessary to return to the manufacturer for rework of the spectrometer.

With replaceable slits, users can directly change the spectrometer's performance in the field. It takes only a few minutes to complete the slit changes without realigning. For example, if a QE65 Pro user needs high sensitivity for low light applications, such as fluorescence, the small slit can be changed to a large slit, and the absorbance can be changed back to a small slit to avoid saturation in absorbance applications. Or Torus users can adjust the configured Torus for high-resolution requirements to another application's configuration to provide low-light level measurements.
