3: Using the Curie System
Selecting the Excitation Wavelength Range with LVF Filters
To set the excitation wavelength range with the LVF filters, place the software in Scope mode. If you are
running Curie custom software, click
on the toolbar to escape Relative Irradiance mode. Your
system returns to raw signal mode. You can then switch back to Relative Irradiance mode for your
measurement after the excitation wavelength range is chosen by clicking on the
on the toolbar.
The sections below describe the steps necessary to select your excitation wavelength range with the
intergrated LVF filters. You must use the CVD-DIFFUSE located in the storage compartment door of
your Curie to deflect the filtered light energy into the detector (see
). Based on
the wavelength range necessary for your emission, you must also determine which set of LVF filters to
use (only one set of LVF filters is used at a time – see LVF filter description below) and which mirror you
need to use (see
