  1. Learn the Fundamentals of the Diffraction Grating Spectrometer

    Aug 17, 2024 · For a diffraction grating used in a spectrometer, ##N ## maybe 50,000 or more, making for primary maxima with very high amplitudes, and very narrow angular spread). Much of the operation of the spectrometer is based upon this formula, so we will show how the formula is applied to get the location of the primary maxima, as well as the spectral ...

  2. About collimation in Czerny-Turner spectrometers - Physics Forums

    Dec 15, 2023 · In Czerny-Turner spectrometer one wavelength in a middle of spectral range can be balanced for coma aberration. Coma would change the sign at balanced wavelength passing zero value. I would not struggle with astigmatism, just adding a defocus it is possible to get one of astigmatism focies making the best sharpness across the slit.

  3. Chlorophyll in Acetone Spectrophotometry Help - Physics Forums

    May 1, 2014 · Hi, I have an older spectrophotometer (Spectronic 20) I've been trying to get up and running mostly just for fun, but also to learn more about spectrophotometry in general. Recently I tried constructing an absorbance spectrum for chlorophyll in acetone. I took an unmeasured amount of cuttings...

  4. Sources of errors in a spectrometer experiment - Physics Forums

    Feb 17, 2019 · Your Lordship, Please post things like this in homework PF guidelines require an effort -- see guidelines It also 'helps' to post a complete problem (in your case specific experiment & further processing) description : one can do an awful lot …

  5. What Does a Negative Absorbance Reading Indicate? - Physics …

    Jul 10, 2010 · This sounds like a question for the spectrometer's manual perhaps...? Jul 10, 2010 #3 Sybren. 53 0.

  6. So the question is: what is the optical density of the original sample?

    Jul 31, 2008 · I have to determine the optical density of about 400 samples. Some samples however are too "dense" for the photospectrometer, that is they have an optical density greater than the range of the spectrometer (>4,5 OD) In order to determine the optical density of these samples I diluted them. So for example:

  7. Spectrometer vs Spectrometry vs Spectroscopy - Physics Forums

    Sep 29, 2019 · How do you differentiate between the three? I read that "Spectrometry deals with the measurement of a specific spectrum. There are four primary types of spectrometers: 1. Mass spectrometry 2. Neutron triple axis spectrometry 3. Ion-mobility spectrometry 4. Rutherford backscattering...

  8. Difference and relationship between spectrometers and …

    Jun 9, 2013 · A spectrometer measures the optical power spectral density as a function of the wavelength or optical frequency (say F(v) v.s. v, where "v" is frequency), is this right? Q2. An interferometer can be used to detect the amplitude of a light source v.s. the path difference (x), i.e. if the detected signal is f(x), then we can plot f as a function ...

  9. Does increasing slit size in spectroscopy affect SNR? - Physics …

    Aug 4, 2011 · Anyone know a source for a mathematical analysis relating the slit-size/throughput for a spectrometer vs SNR? I find that I always get better SNR (but not necessarily resolution) with a wider slit or higher throughput monochromator when doing emissions work. Fritz

  10. CCD vs Photodiode: Which is Best Detector? - Physics Forums

    Nov 28, 2011 · Which is the preferred detector, the CCD chip or the Photodiode. What are the differences between these two
