New Integrating Sphere Print E-mail

avasphere-ls-hal_-_var2c.jpgIntegrating Sphere with internal halogen light source 

The AvaSphere-50-LS-HAL is the ideal combination of an integrating sphere with an internal halogen light source. The advantage of the internal halogen light source is a factor of 160 times more light on the sample than with an integrating sphere and external fiber coupled light source and is therefore mostly suitable for dark reflecting materials and NIR spectral measurements. The integrating sphere can be used for reflection measurements with diffuse halogen light as illumination and a direct collimated SMA measurement port for reflection signal sampling to connect the Avaspec spectrometer.

New Store to RAM function Print E-mail

avantes_pr-foto_-_store_to_ram_function_f_webc.jpg

Avantes now offers the possibility of Store to RAM. This makes it possible to store an large number of spectra in a very short time. These spectra are saved in the internal memory (RAM) of the spectrometer and can later be transferred to the PC. 
The Store To RAM function, which allows the storing of scans at high speed (as fast as 1.1. msecs per scan for the AvaSpec-2048-USB2, and 0.1 msec per scan for the AvaSpec-128-USB2) can be accessed through Avantes AS-5216 DLL and will soon be available in AvaSoft Full.  Store to RAM is the fastest, most reliable way to rapidly collect and save spectra without the overhead of USB communication.
