Abstract
AbstractA computer‐operated spectrograph was recently built at Okazaki, Japan. Different specimens can be placed on a horseshoe‐shaped focal curve (10 m long) covering a wavelength range of 250 to 1000 nm so they can be irradiated simultaneously. The linear dispersion is about 0.8 nm/cm. The photon fluence rate on the focal curve is 5 x 1015. photons x cm‐2 x s‐1 at 300nm and 1 x 1016 photons x cm‐2 x s‐1 at 600 and at 900 nm. The spectral half width is 5.5 nm or less on the focal curve. The stray light content is about 10‐5 of the main peak at the peak wavelength ± 100 nm. Specimens are set in microcomputer‐controlled threshold boxes so that wavelengths, photon fluence rates, photon fluences and timing of irradiations are controlled automatically according to a pre‐programmed schedule. An optical fiber system is also provided for remote irradiations.
