Tunable Deuterium and Tungsten-Halogen Light Sources
Tunable Broadband Light Sources
Deuterium and Tungsten-Halogen tunable light sources are convenient and affordable solutions for your laboratory experiments. Their optimized optical design, delivers efficient and power stabilized broadband optical power with variable aperture and selectable bandwidth with wavelength ranging from 180 nm up to 2 micron depending on your choice of the lamp.
These tunable light sources are used to study wavelength dependent chemical, biological, and physical changes or properties over a broad range of applications such as:
- Solar simulators
- Photochemistry
- Photo-activation
- Photobiology
- Spectroscopy
- Optical teaching labs
- Pump probe
- Dermatology
- Catheter illumination
HORIBA offers a wide range of spectrometers, all compatible with our Deuterium and Tungsten-Halogen tunable light sources designs, depending on your spectral resolution, wavelength range and budget.
Key Benefits of the Tunable Deuterium and Tungsten-Halogen Light Sources:
- Optimized optical design and coupling to achieve maximum light throughput
- Continuous and computer controlled adjustment of the optical bandwidth
- Pre-aligned illumination capable of outputting monochromatic light over a broad wavelength range
- Perfect for system integration
