Spectroscopic research spectrometer

The Digilab FTS 7000 is a high performance spectrometer designed to meet the requirements of the spectroscopic researcher. Based on a 2" clear aperture, air-bearing, 60° Michelson interferometer and a high flux water-cooled source, the FTS 7000 can be configured to cover the spectral range from 50,000 to 10 cm-1. It also has a wide range of scan speeds, capable of collecting over 100 spectra per second in rapid scan mode, down to slow step scan speeds for frequency domain or time domain step scan spectroscopy.

The FTS 7000 spectrometer system includes Win-IR Pro software, which provides turnkey applications for even demanding step-scan applications; including depth profiling of heterogeneous materials with photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS), dynamic linear dichroism measurements on polymer films, and polarisation modulation measurements on monolayer films. All step-scan frequency domain experiments are controlled by Digilab's digital signal processing (DSP) software, which eliminates the requirements for lock-in amplifiers or other hardware demodulators.

The FTS 7000 is also capable of performing time resolved measurements in the nanosecond time scale.

Operating under Windows 2000, Win-IR Pro provides the user with an intuitive spreadsheet interface for collection of common spectra, and it automatically tracks a sample history for GLP compliance. The sample history can be used to reprocess a spectrum from its raw data through its complete processing history. It can also be used as a convenient way of defining macros for future scans.
