From UV-VIS to NIR: Highest sensitivity through three detectors
Shimadzu’s UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometer ‘UV-3600 Plus’ provides highest sensitivity through three detectors: a photomultiplier tube (PMT) for the ultraviolet and visible regions, and InGaAs (indium gallium arsenide) and PbS detectors (lead sulfide) for the near infrared region. To ensure high sensitivity over the entire measurement wavelength range, the InGaAs detector bridges the gap between the PMT/PbS switching wavelength where sensitivity is typically low.
The UV-3600 Plus covers a wide variety of applications in the ultraviolet, visible and near infrared wavelength range and targets the measurement of liquid samples. But a wide range of accessories enables analysis of solid samples as well.
As a global player, Shimadzu operates production facilities and distribution centers in 74 countries, with more than 11,000 employees worldwide. For 50 years, the European headquarters has been located in Germany. There, Shimadzu inaugurated in 2013 its outperforming training and testing facilities, Laboratory World, for customers from all over Europe. With over 1500 m2 floor space, Shimadzu showcases its entire product range for testing and customer demonstrations - from chromatographs, spectrophotometers, TOC analysers, mass spectrometers and balances to material testing machines.
