Lens system which allows exceptionally high clamping loads guaranteeing intimate sample contact and hence high sensitivity and quality spectral data

Mandel now distributes the Specac extended range Golden Gate diamond ATR system at no additional cost and with no sampling restrictions Most diamond ATR systems restrict the useful working wavelength range from 4000cm-1 to around 700cm-1 by using ZnSe optical assemblies

The use of KRS-5 extends the working range from 4000cm-1 to 350cm-1, but this soft material resists sample clamping pressures when used in composite construction and tends to be expensive.

The Golden Gate lens system does not rely on optical material to support the diamond element.

Specac's Type IIa industrial diamonds are metal bonded into a tungsten carbide support which allows exceptionally high clamping loads guaranteeing intimate sample contact and hence high sensitivity and quality spectral data.

Now Specac offers a choice of diamond ATR systems that operate over the full mid-IR wavelength range, without sampling restrictions and at no additional cost.
