Radiation visible

In absorption spectroscopy a beam of electromagnetic radiation passes through a sample. Much of the radiation is transmitted without a loss in intensity. At selected frequencies, however, the radiation s intensity is attenuated. This process of attenuation is called absorption. Two general requirements must be met if an analyte is to absorb electromagnetic radiation. The first requirement is that there must be a mechanism by which the radiation s electric field or magnetic field interacts with the analyte. For ultraviolet and visible radiation, this interaction involves the electronic energy of valence electrons. A chemical bond s vibrational energy is altered by the absorbance of infrared radiation. A more detailed treatment of this interaction, and its importance in deter-... [Pg.380]

UV/Vis Spectra for Molecules and Ions When a molecule or ion absorbs ultraviolet or visible radiation it undergoes a change in its valence electron configuration. The valence electrons in organic molecules, and inorganic anions such as oc-... [Pg.382]

The determination of an analyte s concentration based on its absorption of ultraviolet or visible radiation is one of the most frequently encountered quantitative analytical methods. One reason for its popularity is that many organic and inorganic compounds have strong absorption bands in the UV/Vis region of the electromagnetic spectrum. In addition, analytes that do not absorb UV/Vis radiation, or that absorb such radiation only weakly, frequently can be chemically coupled to a species that does. For example, nonabsorbing solutions of Pb + can be reacted with dithizone to form the red Pb-dithizonate complex. An additional advantage to UV/Vis absorption is that in most cases it is relatively easy to adjust experimental and instrumental conditions so that Beer s law is obeyed. [Pg.394]

The focus of this section is the emission of ultraviolet and visible radiation following thermal or electrical excitation of atoms. Atomic emission spectroscopy has a long history. Qualitative applications based on the color of flames were used in the smelting of ores as early as 1550 and were more fully developed around 1830 with the observation of atomic spectra generated by flame emission and spark emission.Quantitative applications based on the atomic emission from electrical sparks were developed by Norman Lockyer (1836-1920) in the early 1870s, and quantitative applications based on flame emission were pioneered by IT. G. Lunde-gardh in 1930. Atomic emission based on emission from a plasma was introduced in 1964. [Pg.434]

A UV/Vis absorbance detector can also be used if the solute ions absorb ultraviolet or visible radiation. Alternatively, solutions that do not absorb in the UV/Vis range can be detected indirectly if the mobile phase contains a UV/Vis-absorbing species. In this case, when a solute band passes through the detector, a decrease in absorbance is measured at the detector. [Pg.593]

Spectroscopic techniques based on the absorption of UV or visible radiation depend on the excitation of an electron from one quantum state to another. References in physical and/or analytical chemistry should be consulted for additional details, but the present summary is sufficient for our purposes ... [Pg.461]

A CCD is a two-dimensional array of silicon photosensors, each photosensor usually being referred to as a pixel. When radiation falls on a pixel, photoelectrons are produced in numbers proportional to the intensity of the radiation. A typical wavelength range to which the CCD is sensitive is 400-1050 nm, but this may be extended down to below 1.5 nm with a phosphor that converts short-wavelength into visible radiation. [Pg.63]

In the process of excitation, the dye molecule absorbs a quantum of uv or visible radiation. The quantum has an energy E = hv, where b is Planck s constant and O is the frequency of the radiation. The higher the frequency of the quantum, the shorter the wavelength X, with u-A = c, where c is the velocity of light in a vacuum. [Pg.299]

Reagents which form a derivative that strongly absorbs UV/visible radiation are called chromatags an example is the reagent ninhydrin, commonly used to obtain derivatives of amino acids which show absorption at about 570 nm. Derivatisation for fluorescence detectors is based on the reaction of non-fluorescent reagent molecules (fluorotags) with solutes to form fluorescent... [Pg.228]

The intensity of a flare is largely determined by its temp, which in turn depends on the stability of the reaction products. In order to generate grey body radiation which encompasses the spectral sensitivity of the human eye (0.4— 0.74pm), 3000°K should be exceeded. Whereas this is possible using nitrates and perchlorates with alkaline earth metals as well as Zr, Ti and Hf (Ref 34) (H, C, B, Si and P form oxides which dissociate at high temps), in practice Mg and A1 are found to be best in terms of heat output, cost, and transparency to visible radiation... [Pg.983]

Heat- and light-separation coatings (also known as hot and cold mirrors) are important applications that separate the hot (infrared) from the cold (visible) radiation. The principle is shown schematically inFig. 16.2. The transmittance of a cold mirror is shown in Fig. 16.3a. This mirror is coated with a dielectric film reflecting more than 90% of the... [Pg.407]
