Description
The SM303 TE-Cooled Backthinned Spectrometer is a cutting-edge instrument designed for scientific-grade spectrometry applications. This high-performance spectrometer is engineered to deliver extremely low dark noise and minimal stray light, making it an excellent choice for low signal level applications. With its high signal-to-noise ratio and superior ultraviolet quantum efficiency, the SM303 is ideal for precise spectrophotometric and spectro-radiometric measurements.
At the heart of the SM303 is a back-thinned CCD that offers exceptional sensitivity in the ultraviolet range, enabling deep UV applications. The spectrometer's well-designed housing allows for a measurement window of up to 850nm, spanning from 200nm to 1050nm. This flexibility, combined with very low stray light, ensures high spectral resolution and light sensitivity. The thermoelectric (TE) cooled detector further enhances performance by reducing noise levels during long integration times, making it perfect for capturing very low light signals.
The SM303 spectrometer is equipped with a USB 1.1/2.0 compatible interface featuring 16-bit AD conversion, supporting multichannel configurations of up to eight channels. This capability allows for high-resolution measurements across a wide range or the implementation of a dual spectrometer system for simultaneous measurement and reference. The spectrometer also comes with comprehensive software support, including an SDK and DLLs for custom application development, as well as the SM32Pro Windows-based spectral acquisition and analysis software.
