Characterising lasers, measuring gas absorbance, and determining atomic emission lines?.
Ocean Optics says its HR4000 high resolution spectrometer has a 3648 element CCD-array that enables optical resolution as precise as 0.02nm (FWHM).
Because of the electronic shutter, integration times as short as 10us are possible to allow measuring transient events like laser pulses. The HR4000's onboard programmable microcontroller provides a considerable flexibility in controlling the spectrometer and accessories via ten user-programmable digital inputs/outputs. Interfacing to a PC or PLC or other embedded controllers is possible via USB 2.0 or RS-232 serial port.
Data unique to each spectrometer are programmed into a memory chip for better communication with the software for easier setup and hot swapping among PCs.
The HR4000 measures just 149mm x 105mm, which is valuable for field applications of lab setups.
The HR4000 is available in pre-configured systems for UV-NIR as well as user-configured systems to meet the customer's needs.
