Hollow Cathode Lamps (Multi Element) - All
HCL Multi-Element Overview
- Photron's P500 & P5 Multi Element HCLs: All AAS systems (37mm or 1.5")
- Photron's P600 & P6 Multi Element HCLs: Perkin Elmer (51mm or 2")
Hollow cathode lamps produced by Photron are designed and manufactured to achieve all of the following fundamental requirements for a spectral line source.
- Intense emission of resonance (ground state derived) lines.
- Narrow line width, for maximum sensitivity and linearity.
- Minimal spectral interference from continuum emission, present in the cathode.
- Rapid warm up to produce stable long term light emission.
- Noise free operation.
- Long running life and a 5 year shelf life.
- Cathode materials and geometry achieve a combination of spectral purity and a suitable sputtering rate. (A high sputtering rate will give high intensity at the expense of lamp life, sensitivity and linearity).
