Near Infrared Spectroscopy is Useful Tool in Photovoltaics Panel Development

With their modest cost, compact size and great flexibility, miniature fiber optic spectrometers are attractive analytical tools for photovoltaic materials research and quality control. Typical applications include analysis of the optical properties of solar cell materials, spectroradiometric measurement of solar simulators used in panel testing and quality control in panel production. In this case study, we evaluated NIR spectroscopy as a tool to measure the reflection properties of potential photovoltaic panel materials. (more…)

Broad UV-NIR spectral coverage can be achieved in a miniature spectrometer configured with our XR-1 Extended Range grating, which is responsive from 200-1050 nm. Our USB2000+ Spectrometer with an XR-1 grating maintains good optical resolution over the UV-NIR range, making it useful for applications such as measuring the relative output of a combination deuterium-halogen light source.
