OB920P Spectrometer

The OB920P is a modular, computer controlled L - geometry spectrometer for measuring Time Resolved luminescence spectra and luminescence decays spanning the range from 100picoseconds to 10seconds.

Features Include :

  • Fluorescence lifetimes from 100picoseocnds to 10seconds
  • High dynamic range and temporal resolution
  • Time Correlated Single Photon Counting operation
  • PC plug-in card for TCSPC
  • Fully computer controlled through Windows software
  • Full data reconvolution using a non-linear least square fitting routine
     

The OB920P employs the measurement principle of Time Correlated Single Photon Counting (TCSPC) for fluorescence measurements from 100picoseconds to 10microseconds and then employs the principle of Multi-Channel scaling (MCS) for measurements from 1microseocnd to 10seconds. The system comes complete with our F900 software for comprehensive spectrometer control, data acquisition and decay curve analysis for up to four independent lifetimes.
 

The OB920P consists of the following hardware :

  • Pulsed Xenon flashlamp under computer control to measure phosphorescence decays. Pulses 2 to 7 µs with an average power >60 W up to 100 Hz.

  • Nanosecond pulsed flashlamp, including driver and start synchronisation photomultiplier, gas filling and vacuum pumping station

  • Excitation monochromator: 100 mm focal length low temporal dispersion, high stray light rejection. Computer controlled wavelength selection, manual slit selection, wavelength accuracy 1nm

  • Sample chamber with liquid cooled cuvette holder and temperature monitor,

  • Emission monochromator: 100 mm focal length low temporal dispersion, high stray light rejection. Computer controlled wavelength selection, manual slit selection, wavelength accuracy 1nm

  • Single Photon counting sensitive detector

  • TCC900 card for TCSPC data acquisition

  • PCS900 card for MCS data acquisition

  • Dedicated PC running F900 software for comprehensive spectrometer control, performance monitoring, fluorescence lifetime data acquisition and analysis library
     

Software Interface  :

The OB920P spectrometer is supplied with the F900 advanced software. This software is a user friendly package providing the user with complete control of the spectrometer. Measurement set-up and data acquisition is made through a transparent menu system and the measurement modes within the software reflect the system configuration by means of a simple operating environment. Control of the hardware settings on the TCC900 data acquisition card are easily accessed through the F900 software.

Data Acquisition :

The OB920P utilises both Time Correlated Single Photon Counting together (TCSPC) and Multi-Channel Scaling (MCS) for data acquisition.
