LED Sources

Modern LEDs are ideal sources for flash photolysis and luminescence excitation.

  • We computer-control their on-off activity with sub-microsecond precision with nearly limitless scripted options possible.

  • The bandpass of an LED can be refined by adding a filter.

  • Exchanging one LED with a second takes moments and no tools. A given laboratory might own two, three, or more LED tubes to support an array of experiments.

  • Is a scanning monochromator better than an LED? Yes for scanning. No for stability, speed, intensity, and economy.
