UV/VIS/NIR absorbance spectroscopy is governed by Beer's Law, where the absorbance signal is proportional to chemical concentration, light path length and the compound’s specific molar absorption coefficient. Typical optical pathlengths of cuvettes and flow cells are between 0.1 cm and 10 cm. Longer pathlengths are difficult to achieve due to mechanical constraints. WPI solved this problem with the LWCC Liquid Waveguide Capillary Cells. LWCCs are fiber optic flow cells that combine an increased optical pathlength range from 10–500 cm with small sample volumes ranging from 2.4 µL to about 3 mL. Compared with a standard 1 cm cell you can expect to achieve a 10-500 fold increase in sensitivity.

When you have exact specifications for your fiber optic assemblies, WPI delivers with proprietary qualified optical fibers designed by in-house optical engineers. You can count on superior performance from WPI's spectroscopy products and the published research scientists who design them. When you depend on reliable data for your discoveries, consider WPI's German Optics Department for qualified optical fiber and assemblies.
Here we discuss the process for submitting a request for an optical fiber to match your needs using the WPI optical fiber selection guide. There are five steps.
...more1. Select your fiber material. You will see in the two charts that there are seven fiber materials available. Two of them are exclusive and new to WPI. Once you’ve discovered what spectral range you are working on and the numerical aperture (NA) that you will need, select the fiber material. 2. Select the style of the optical fiber. To simplify the process, we only show a couple. - - July 21, 2019
