Read MoreConducted by: David Ademe, Avantes Inc. Theme: Absorbance/ATR Probe Background/Applications: Absorbance spectroscopy can bring entirely new perspectives on samples through a wide range of industries. This includes industrial lines, where continually monitoring of water, fluids, and chemicals is necessary to ensure consistent quality and specifications. Many inline control systems use UV/VIS absorbance systems to control…
Read MoreAvantes ATR Probe for measurements of viscous fluids. Attenuated Total Reflectance is a measurement technique used for incredibly optically dense media such as inks, dyes, coal, and sludge. ATR uses the property of total internal reflection through a crystal resulting in an evanescent wave. A beam of visible or near-infrared light is passed through…

Read MoreAmong the many applications of spectroscopy, we encounter different types of resolution ranging from temporal, spatial, and spectral resolution. When evaluating a spectrometer instrument, the optical resolving power of the instrument is key. This is known as spectral resolution and is normally defined as the minimum spectral separation between peaks that the instrument can resolve.…
Read MoreBackground/Applications: Spectral irradiance is the irradiance of a surface per unit frequency or wavelength, depending on whether the spectrum is taken as a function of frequency or of wavelength. The two forms have different dimensions: spectral irradiance of a frequency spectrum is measured in watts per square meter per hertz (W·m−2·Hz−1), while spectral irradiance of…
Read MoreThe measurement needs of the solar industry are quite diverse, ranging from process control applications in the manufacturing of thin-film photovoltaic panels through direct solar measurements and solar simulator characterization. Avantes has worked closely together with a number of industrial and research customers in the solar industry to design spectroscopy and spectroradiometry systems that meet…
Read MoreContinuing its tradition of high-quality instrument manufacturing, Avantes has been working with our solar customers to identify optical configurations for this industry. We partnered with Sinton instruments, a leading company in the work of solar metrology technologies, to offer software solutions for performing the International standard IEC60904 Solar Simulator Classification.
