Photodiode array detectors in UV-VIS spectroscopy: part I

A hybrid organic semiconductor/silicon photodiode for efficient ultraviolet photodetection

“…There is a need for convenient photodiodes and multi-pixel detectors with high responsivity across the ultraviolet and visible spectral regions. Such detectors have applications in fields such as spectroscopy [1], nuclear physics [2] and astronomy [3,4]. Ideally these devices should be compatible with existing silicon technology for ease of processing and to be able to take advantage of the wide availability and high spatial resolution of modern silicon CCD detectors.…”

Ultraviolet and Visible Spectroscopy

“…In fact, the problems are the same as those with microprocessor-controlled single-beam equipment. The application of this type of equipment for routine measurements, in kinetics, and as a detector in chromatography is continually increasing [49].…”

Biochemical and Biophysical Methods for Studying Mitochondrial Iron Metabolism

“…The most common heme centers in biological samples are heme A, heme B, and heme C, and these centers have α bands located at $605, $565, and $550 nm, respectively (Keilin, 1925). However, it should be noted that obtaining spectra in this way necessitates the use of more advanced spectrometers such as a photomultiplier tube to increase sensitivity ( Jones, 1985) or utilization of custom cuvettes to minimize path length in these turbid suspensions . Heme centers generate strong signals when the iron is in a reduced state, but the signal diminishes greatly when the iron is oxidized.…”
