Horiba Fluorolog-3 (2iHR, FL-1000)

Modular spectrofluorometer for emission, excitation and fluorescence lifetime measurements.

Modular spectrofluorometer for emission, excitation and fluorescence lifetime measurements.

Horiba · Fluorolog-3 with 2iHR spectrometer and FL-1000 lifetime module

What it does

The reference luminescence system of the facility. Excitation is selected by monochromator, and the emitted light is dispersed and detected as a spectrum. The lifetime module additionally records how quickly the emission decays after excitation, which is sensitive to the local environment of the emitting species and to interactions a spectrum alone does not show.

Key capabilities

  • Emission and excitation spectra
  • Fluorescence lifetime measurement
  • Quantum yield determination
  • Low-signal detection with a modular optical bench
