FVS-6000 Vibrational Circular Dichroism Spectrometer

The FVS-6000 vibrational circular dichroism spectrometer measures both IR absorption and VCD and provides accurate and highly sensitive measurements in the fingerprint region. It also has several unique features such as a wide measurement range option of 4,000 to 750 cm-1 with a choice of detectors

Since the VCD signals in the infrared region are typically one or more orders of magnitude lower than ECD signals in the UV-Visible region, high sensitivity and stability are especially important for a VCD spectrometer. FVS-6000 provides accurate and highly sensitive measurement in the fingerprint region.

The FVS-6000 uses a 28º Michelson interferometer to minimize the effects of polarization and reflective optics to eliminate artifacts caused by birefringence resulting in high quality, artifact free VCD data.

There are many different techniques

Optional accessories

    • Auto-sampling – Automatic sampling is useful for unattended operation for long duration spectral accumulations. The TAS-FVS autosampler can be used for both background and sample measurements.
    • Sample rotation – For samples that have linear dichroism or birefringence, rotation can be a useful method for identifying and minimizing the effects. The SRU-FVS can be set up for unattended operation to analyze the sample in different orientations and collect spectra for comparison.
