3: Using the Curie System

Adjusting the LVFs to Select the Excitation Wavelength Range

With the software in Scope mode, the CVD-DIFFUSE in the cuvette holder and the correct mirror chosen,
loosen the thumbscrews and slide the handles (one for UV and one for VIS) on the Curie to select the
excitation wavelength range. You can only adjust and use one LVF time; the other LVF must be in the No
LVF
position.

In the figures below, the spectra for light passing through the UV LVF filter set at 350 nm and the VIS
LVF filter set at 500 nm are shown.
