LASER COMPONENTS are pleased to announce a new and exciting USB spectrometer, the Tristan® USB. The Tristan® USB gets its power directly from the computer's USB port, so is ideal for use with a notebook computer since an external power supply or battery supply is not necessary. Alternatively, you can operate the Tristan® 5 without a computer, instead using the fully functional spectrometer with onboard software. The 3648 pixel CCD detector within the Tristan® USB spectrometer provides an outstanding spectral resolution, the highest that has been available in the Tristan range.
The Tristan® USB spectrometer is available in four different spectral ranges. The UV/ Vis/NIR makes fullest use of modern CCD line detection with a spectral range from 190 - 1100nm, the UV/Vis and the Vis/NIR are configured to optimise resolution in the UV and NIR wavelength ranges, yielding a greater optical resolution. The Vis version is optimised for visible, colour and lighting measurements.
All spectrometers come complete with software, which has recently been improved, with additional features such as the ability to perform additional mathematical functions for data analysis and curve smoothing. It is also possible to manage multiple spectrometers at the same time using the same instance of the software.
