Iranian Knowledge-Based Company Produces Optical Spectrometer
“Optical spectrometer is a tool to study the interaction of light with the material environment (atoms and molecules),” said Maryam Zare’, the managing director of the knowledge-based company.
“The miniature optical spectrometer named Fiztech is a small and portable tool that can be used in UV, Vis, NIR measurements in the range of 190 to 1,100 nm,” she added.
“The miniature optical spectrometer (UV-vis-NIR) has been designed in a way that it has no moving parts and uses a 3,648 pixel array detector for the analysis of different sources of radiation (laser, LED, displays, etc.), analysis of materials (absorption, transmission, reflection, photoluminescence and phosphorescence), color analysis, food analysis, gemology, analysis of semiconductors, plasmonic materials and thin films,” Zare’ said.
Noting that the device enjoys a light and strong aluminum body, she said, “The spectrometer software (UV-vis-NIR) was developed by Fiztech experts and is a practical and user-friendly software that can be installed on all types of Windows operating systems.”
An optical spectrometer (spectrophotometer, spectrograph or spectroscope) is an instrument used to measure properties of light over a specific portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, typically used in spectroscopic analysis to identify materials.
The variable measured is most often the irradiance of the light but could also, for instance, be the polarization state. The independent variable is usually the wavelength of the light or a closely derived physical quantity, such as the corresponding wavenumber or the photon energy, in units of measurement such as centimeters, reciprocal centimeters, or electron volts, respectively.
A spectrometer is used in spectroscopy for producing spectral lines and measuring their wavelengths and intensities. Spectrometers may operate over a wide range of non-optical wavelengths, from gamma rays and X-rays into the far infrared. If the instrument is designed to measure the spectrum on an absolute scale rather than a relative one, then it is typically called a spectrophotometer. The majority of spectrophotometers are used in spectral regions near the visible spectrum.
