Engineering Research Equipment Grant: Funding for a Spectro-fluorometer for Fluorescence Spectroscopy

这是一个为荧光计提供资金的提案， 测量样品的波长范围， 在中红外线下可见 该工具将 补充现有的吸收光谱仪。 添加 这种仪器的光学性能将提高 测量设施，并确保完整 在一个部门制造的材料的特性 已经有很好的测量记录， 陶瓷材料的物理和化学性能。 的 所要求的工具将能够衡量 材料的发光波长为16， 在温度较低的情况下， 77K。 特别是，它将增强光纤 目前正在开发的新的制造程序 约克州立陶瓷学院， 缺陷和掺杂剂分析。

This is a proposal for funding for a fluorometer that measures of samples over a range of wavelengths from the visible through the mid infrared. This instrument would complement existing absorption spectrometers. The addition of this instrument would enhance the optical property measurement facilities and ensure the complete characterization of materials fabricated in a department that already has an excellent record for the measurement of physical and chemical properties of ceramic materials. The instrument requested would enable the measurement of luminescence of materials out to a wavelength of 16 on a variety of sample geometries and sizes at temperatures down to 77K. In particular, it would enhance the optical fibre fabrication program currently being developed at the New York State College of Ceramics by allowing comprehensive defect amd dopant analyses.
