Fiber Optic
Spectrometer
Five different calibration lamps are available: Mercury (Hg); Neon (Ne); Argon (Ar);
Krypton (Kr); and Xenon (Xe). The Mercury lamp has strong spectral lines throughout
the UV-VIS region. The Neon lamp has a large number of lines of mid to high intensity
in the 800nm to 3400nm range, which makes it useful for resolution testing in the NIR
region. There are also a number of closely spaced lines of similiar intensity over this
wavelength range. The Xenon lamp’s distribution of lines of moderate intensity between 800nm and 3500nm is useful for calibration in the IR. These emission lines are
relatively close to wavelengths used by fiber optic communication systems for data
transfer. Testing of fibers and detectors for these systems can be performed without
the inherent high cost of lasers for light sources. The Argon line spectrum features a
number of lines of consistent high intensity between 700nm and 1000nm. These lines
at such a high intensity are excellent for calibration in that region. There are also several lines spaced less than 1 nm apart that can be used for resolution testing.

Fiber coupling
The atomic emission of the ASC Series lamps consists of discrete spectral
lines of defined wavelength, spectral width, and relative intensity. Their stability
makes them extremely useful for calibration, alignment, and resolution testing
of spectrophotometric instrumentation, including monochromators, spectrographs, spectrophotometers, and detectors. Portable battery operation for field
use.
