Fiber optics coupled Xenon light sources / Light sources
Xenon light sources are useful for absorbance, fluorescence or reflectance measurements. They offer very high intensity in the UV. Standard and high-power output models are available with broadband output from UV through NIR
Fiber optics coupled Xenon light sources summary
Pulsed xenon sources are ideal for measurements where high intensity UV light can damage the sample because they have high intensity with a lower duty cycle. They offer excellent pulse-to-pulse stability during long measurements.
Continuous Xenon source is a brilliant companion for fluorescence applications and other applications where a high-intensity lamp is necessary. These models have an integrated shutter that can be controlled by a TTL signal or a switch on the front panel. It allows the limitation of the exposure of the sample to this high intensity source.
