Used PHI Quantera #9361631 for sale

A PHI Quantera is a high resolution spectrometer that is designed to measure the interaction of light with matter. The instrument utilizes a grating-based spectrometer, a well-established type of spectrometer, providing unrivaled spectral resolution. The basic design of Quantera consists of a light source, a line-of-sight optical cavity, an array of optical and electronic components, and a controlling computer. The instrument's light source is typically an air-cooled metal-halide lamp, or a low-noise diode laser. The light is collimated into a line-of-sight cavity which is filled with air gaps and apertures to ensure the highest possible spectral resolution. The instrument's optical components include secondary optics, a reflecting mirror, a survey telescope, and a fine structure spectrometer which is designed to achieve the ultimate spectral resolution. PHI Quantera utilizes a custom designed electron multiplier detector which amplifies the light's signal into a measurable current. In order to maximize the instrument's sensitivity and accuracy, the detector is cooled to cryogenic temperatures. This is achieved by using a liquid nitrogen tank which is mounted on the detector. Quantera is controlled and monitored by a computer with a custom-designed interface. This computer-controlled system allows the operator to adjust the light source's power output, wavelength range of the spectra, and time resolution. The graphical interface allows the operator to easily enter additional information related to the sample being measured. Overall, PHI Quantera is an advanced instrument which provides its users with unrivaled spectral resolution. The instrument's sensitivity and resolution, coupled with its user friendly interface, makes it an ideal choice for those looking for a high quality spectrometer.
