Low Temperature Macro Photoluminescence and PLE system.
The
Jobin Yvon FluoroLog
3 system makes an ideal turnkey macro PL / PLE system. The
large format sample chamber allows the easy installation of a
standard helium cryostat for low temperature studies.
Excitation is from a
powerful 450W xenon lamp coupled to a double grating fast scanning
monochromator. The double grating arrangement greatly reduces stray
light and as the gratings are kinematically mounted they can easily
be changed by the user to maximise efficiency at the desired wavelength.
The sample chamber optics,
like the rest of the FluoroLog 3, consist only of mirrors which
unlike lenses will maintain their efficiency and focus throughout a
wide wavelength range.
The emission goes through
a Triax 552 0.5m
spectrograph, which offers high resolution and can accommodate a
variety of different detectors such as, photon counting PMT, CCD,
ICCD, Ge diode and InGaAs arrays. The Triax 522 is unique in that two
array detectors (CCD and InGaAs) can be accommodated simultaneously.
The system is controlled
by the Jobin Yvon DataMax
software, which can perform excitation, emission, time base and
synchronous scans in both eV and nm units.
