Gemini 180

Double monochromator

The Gemini 180 is a fully automated, double additive grating scanning monochromator. The incorporation of toroidal optics provides for optimum throughput and spectral resolution. The Gemini 180 functions as a high power, high purity light source for Fluorescence, detector characterization, and microscope illumination when coupled with one of our Xe Light Sources. It is ideal for applications that require low stray light such as:

  • Transmission
  • Absorbance
  • Reflectance
  • Fluorescence
Segment: Scientific
Manufacturing Company: HORIBA Scientific

Key Benefits of the Gemini 180 Monochromator:

  • Ultra-low stray light rejection of 10-9
  • Excellent for high purity tunable illumination
  • Fully automated
  • Monochromator or imaging spectrograph
  • USB interface
