Ultraviolet, 1-300 nm Soft X-ray Spectrometer

8 Jan 2007

The McPherson Inc. Model 248/310 is an important tool for scientists developing new pulsed and tunable x-ray laser sources.

Detect laser harmonics over a wide 4eV to 1.2keV energy range. Charge coupled detectors (CCD) or alternately, gated microchannel plate (MCP) intensifiers, are preferred detection schemes. Tune the wavelength centered on the detector from ~1 to 300nm. The dispersion and range intercepted across the CCD or MCP corresponds to the diffraction grating selected for use. The 248/310 features clean stainless steel construction and compact design that also lends it well to work with a variety of laboratory discharge light sources and detectors, ideal for astrophysics calibration work.

The McPherson Inc. Model 248/310G is suitable for work in the 10-6 torr vacuum range. An ultra high vacuum (UHV) version, suitable for work in the 10-10 torr vacuum range, is also available. An good assortment of diffraction gratings is available to match the experimental region of interest. The 248/310 complements the McPherson line of vacuum capable spectrometers suitable for lower energies and longer wavelengths. It uniquely bridges the gap between diffraction grating instruments and dedicated x-ray instrumentation.
