Technical Notes

Arc lamp light sources have high ultraviolet and visible output with some prominent lines in the near infrared, which make them useful for many Spectroscopy applications. The small, bright arcs have significant advantages for collimation and intense irradiation. We offer various families of DC and Pulsed Arc Lamp Sources.
