Description
OmniFluo900 series is a high-performance, versatile, modular spectrofluorometer, dedicated to fundamental research and routine laboratory applications. Its modular design makes it capable of testing steady-state and transient spectra, UV-VIS-NIR wide spectral range, quantum yield, and variable temperature spectra.
This spectrofluorometer's high sensitivity lays a solid foundation for measurements of low sample concentrations or small sample volumes. Spectral correction and high spectral resolution secure the accuracy of the spectra. Equipped with intuitive software, it can be used for material science, photophysics, photochemistry, life science, and agricultural science.
Principle of Operation: Spectrofluorometry is a laboratory technique used to analyze various materials based on their characteristic fluorescence. It relies on the intrinsic chromophores with known characteristic emission spectra. During the spectrofluorometric measurement the compound of interest is illuminated with light of a specific wavelength. Absorption of light lifts the energy of atoms to excited states. Since the excited energy states are typically unstable, they quickly relax to the ground state while emitting the energy in the form of characteristic fluorescence.
Such excitation and emission spectra are standard measurements in fluorescence spectroscopy. In a typical fluorescence excitation spectra measurement, the excitation wavelength is scanned across a spectrum and the fluorescence of specific wavelength is measured. In contrast, in a fluorescence emission measurement, the excitation wavelength is fixed and the entire fluorescence spectrum is measured.
