Optical spectroscopy

FLS1000 - Spectrometer:

Steady-State

  • 450 W Xe lamp
  • Double grating monochromators in Czerny-Turner configuration on excitation and emission side (325 mm each. 1800 lines/mm, linear dispersion 1.7 nm/mm),
  • Peltier-cooled (-20 °C) PMT-980 photon multiplier (200 nm - 950 nm)
  • Various CW turnkey laser diodes (power tunable) with different wavelengths

 

Time-resolved

  • 60 W Xe flashlamp (pulse width 1.5 µs...2.5 µs; pulse frequency 0.1 Hz...100 Hz) for decay times in the ms range
  • Various VPL lasers with different wavelengths; variable pulse widths between 50 ns and 1 ms; multi-channel scaling with repetition rates of 5 kHz...100 MHz for decay times in the µs - ms range
  • Access to various EPL lasers with different wavelengths; pulse width ~ 75 ps, time-correlated single photon counting with repetition rates of 20 kHz...20 MHz for decay times in the ns range
  • Electronically controlled time-gating for measuring delayed fluorescence

 

Miscellaneous

  • Possibility of measuring powders, solutions/liquids and air-sensitive samples in quartz ampoules with ilmasil quality
  • Temperature-dependent measurements from -190 °C - 600 °C on powders (and in principle also on solutions over smaller temperature ranges)
  • Integrating sphere for measuring absolute quantum yields in powders and solutions and for measuring diffuse reflectance spectra (250 nm - 900 nm) on powders

Solid state synthesis

  • Nabertherm tube furnace with possibility for protective gas synthesis up to 1350 °C
  • Nabertherm muffle furnace with chimney for fuming up to 1400 °C
  • Smaller tube and muffle furnaces up to 1100 °C
  • Tube furnaces up to 600 °C
  • Schlenk apparatus
  • Synthesis in high-boiling solvents for the production of nanocrystals

Powder x-ray diffraction

  • X'Pert (Malvern Panalytical) with Cu Kα radiation for powder measurements in Bragg-Brentano geometry
