Introduction to Your System

Agilent 8453 Spectrophotometer — Overview 10

General Purpose Agilent ChemStation Software for UV-visible

Spectroscopy — Overview 18

Operation of the system is much easier if you understand the implementation

models. The mind-models of data acquisition, data evaluation and data

handling will help you to run the system successfully.

Your spectroscopy system is based on an Agilent 8453 spectrophotometer and

general purpose Agilent ChemStation software for UV-visible spectroscopy

running on a PC with the supported Microsoft operating system(s). These two

components are linked together by a network connection. This type of link is

very flexible: it can be used for a direct connection between the

spectrophotometer and the PC as well as the integration in a enterprise

network with network access from the PC to the spectrophotometer.

The tasks are split between these devices such that the spectrophotometer

acquires and provides absorbance data which are handled by the PC’s

application software. All of the data display, evaluation and longterm storage

is done under software control on the PC.

1 Introduction to Your System

Agilent 8453 Spectrophotometer — Overview

This section gives an overview of the optical system and explains the

spectrophotometer front and back panels. It also explains the layout and

construction of the spectrophotometer including the electronic and

mechanical assemblies inside the spectrophotometer.

Optical System Overview

Optical System

The optical system of the spectrophotometer is shown in Figure 1. Its

radiation source is a combination of a deuterium-discharge lamp for the

ultraviolet (UV) wavelength range and a tungsten lamp for the visible and

short wave near-infrared (SWNIR) wavelength range. The image of the

filament of the tungsten lamp is focused on the discharge aperture of the

deuterium lamp by means of a special rear-access lamp design which allows

both light sources to be optically combined and share a common axis to the

source lens. The source lens forms a single, collimated beam of light. The beam

passes through the shutter/stray-light correction filter area then through the

sample to the spectrograph lens and slit. In the spectrograph light is dispersed

onto the diode array by a holographic grating. This allows simultaneous access

to all wavelength information. The result is a fundamental increase in the rate

at which spectra can be acquired.
