3Lamps provide the light in the ultraviolet/visible
light spectrophotometer.
4Particular wavelengths of light can be selected
using a monochromator.
5A photodetector receives the light and converts
it into electrical signals.
6A computer analyses the signals from the
photodetector and displays the spectrum on a
screen or chart recorder.
7The light emerging from the monochromator can be
split into two paths using a beam splitter.
8The two beams of light are directed through the
spectrometer using a series of mirrors or lenses.
9The substance under test is dissolved in a
solvent and placed in a glass or quartz
test-tube, called a cuvette.
10A cuvette containing the solvent alone is used as
a reference.
11Light passes from the lamp through the
monochromator. One path takes it through the
solvent in the reference cell to the
photodetector.
12Electrical signals pass to the computer and
recorder.
13The other path takes the light beam through the
dissolved substance in the sample cell to the
photodetector.
14The beam splitter enables the computer to compare
the spectra of light emerging from the sample and
the reference, so that the final spectrum
corresponds to the sample substance alone.
15The beam splitter enables the computer to compare
