Introducing the Jaz pH System

Mar 19th, 2009 by admin | Comments Off

We’ve incorporated our breakthrough chemical sensing technology with a new generation of sol-gel materials to encapsulate pH dyes for optical pH sensing. Now, you can have a complete handheld Jaz system for pH sensing that delivers a fast response time, gamma resistance, lower maintenance and more accurate measurement of pH content.

Jaz Goes Deep Into the Rainforest

Nov 21st, 2008 by admin | Comments Off

Jaz went along with a  team of researchers to beautiful Costa Rica recently and made a new fan:

A group of scientists and zoologists from the University of Manchester and Chester Zoo headed into the rainforest to study the amphibians as well as the causes for their diminishing numbers.

Irradiance and the Sun

Jun 17th, 2008 by admin | Comments Off

Measuring solar irradiance is a popular application with our customers. Some measure the UV-VIS spectra while others like to measure the complete range from approximately 200 nm to 2500 nm.
In this experiment, we’ll measure relative irradiance of solar light. Normally, one would measure absolute irradiance but not this time around!
The setup looks like this:

Jaz Spectrometer
CC-3 [...]

Reflection of Leaves

Jun 17th, 2008 by admin | Comments Off

Biologists are very interested to see what part of the spectrum is absorbed by various leaves (photosynthesis).
Here, we’ll do a quick setup which allows us to measure this absorbance using the Jaz spectrometer and a reference lightsource.
This setup has the following:

Jaz Spectrometer
Jaz Battery Pack
Collimating lens 74-UV DA (Direct Attach) or 74-UV with fiber
WS1 Reflection standard

And, [...]
