Sample Chambers

The SC-12-M is a general purpose sample chamber that can be configured in multiple ways to address a number of application requirements. The SC-12-M includes 4 optical ports (on three sides and one on the top) as well as a side door for easy access to the sample area.
Three of the side walls feature optical ports with a Sciencetech standard B4 hole pattern as well as removable anodized access panels that can be machined to accommodate most types of feedthroughs including electrical, liquid and gas.

The SC-12-M can be configured for spectroscopy applications such as diffuse reflection and transmission spectroscopy, or as a light tight reaction chamber for photoelectrolysis research. The 2.2" diameter opening on the top port of the sample chamber is designed to mate to Sciencetech's line of lens based solar simulators such as the SF or SLB series simulators, the Solar LightLine solar simulator, as well as Sciencetech's line of 201-100 lamp houses.

The base of the sample chamber is an metric optical breadboard with M6 tapped holes. For the Imperial version see model SC-12.

The SC-12-M is 311x 311x 219mm (12.5" x 12.5" x 8.625")(LxWxH) with internal dimensions of approximately 298 x 298 x 200mm (11.75" x 11.75" x 7.8").
Side inputs have a 3" optical height which can be increased using the included baseplate and levelling feet.
The baseplate is 355 x 355 x 6.3mm (14" x 14" x 1/4").

The standard system does not come with a sample holder. See the product literature for more information on how to configure the sample chamber.

The cuvette holder inside the sample chamber can be replaced with an optional thin film holder. This thin film holder is 2" x 2" square, although other sizes are available (please enquire). The thin film holder is placed at an angle to the input port such that the angle of incidence is 45 degrees. Should the optional TE sample cooling pad be ordered, this cooler connects directly to the thin film holder frame at the base, hence cooling of the sample is done through physical contact with the frame.

This is an external transmission and reflectance sample chamber that can be mated to an output port of the SPS-series FTIRs. This sample chamber allows small samples (such as cuvettes or thin films) to be studied in both reflection and transmission. The sample chamber shares the vacuum environment with the FTIR, but an optional window or vacuum gate (sold separately) allows the chamber to be isolated from the FTIR. The sample chamber utilizes reflective aspheric optics with gold coating for excellent far infrared and terahertz operation.

This Sample Chamber will operate at either 77K or at room temperature, but does not include any mechanism to regulate the temperature between those points.
It requires a supply of liquid nitrogen in order to operate (sold separately).

$ 42,557.00

A custom temperature control system to allow operation at 77K or room temperature.
This system will come with a sample holder capable of holding 2 samples simultaneously. The cryostat can rotate the sample from 0 degrees to 360 degrees, and move the sample up and down in a range of 2". Sciencetechl provides two of these sample holders with this system.

$ 25,665.00

A custom built sample chamber capable of both vacuum operation and a choice of temperature ranges between 77K and room temperature.
The system requires liquid nitrogen, but does not include it.

While the system will be constructed for this temperature range, the mechanisms, pumps, and other equipment is sold separately.
This Sample Chamber requires EITHER 188-8901 OR 188-8903 to complete the sample chamber. Please ask your authorized Sciencetech technical sales staff member for further information.

$ 36,675.00

A temperature control system to allow operation between 77K or room temperature.
This sisytem will come with two separate holders, each capable of holding a specific size and type of sample. They will not have the ability to rotate or moved, but will come prealigned for a fixed angle reflectivity, or transmission, through a motorized flipping mirror.

This external transmission/reflectance sample chamber can be mated to the output port of a Sciencetech FTIR system. This chamber allows small samples to be studied in both transmission and reflectance modes, at temperatures ranging from approximately -20° Celsius to room temperature. The sample chamber utilizes gold coated aspheric optics for excellent signal in the infrared and terahertz region.

$ 18,522.00

This sample chamber has one input port and two output ports. One of the output ports is 90° relative to the input port, allowing it to be used in fluorescence-type applications. The other output port is directly across from the input port, allowing it to be used for transmission measurements/applications. The lid of the sample chamber can be removed, exposing the built-in cuvette holder inside. This cuvette holder holds 10 × 10mm cuvettes. Optionally, the cuvette holder can be upgraded to a thin film holder capable of mounting 20 × 20mm samples. We recommend talking with one of Sciencetech's technical sales staff to determine if the thin film holder will be sufficient for your particular application. The sample chamber dimensions are 205 × 128 × 154mm (8"× 5"× 6").

Please note that this sample chamber does not include any built-in optics for focusing and defocusing light onto the sample, as the light beam through the chamber is anticipated to be collimated. Such focusing and defocusing optics are part of the optical coupling tubes that connect the sample chamber to various external components, such as to a light source or monochromator.
