CHAPTER 19 SPECTROPHOTOMETRY
COMPONENTS OF THE SPECTROPHOTOMETER Absorption (UV-Vis) b Po P Light source monochromator (λselector) sample detector readout
COMPONENTS OF THE SPECTROPHOTOMETER Absorption (IR) Light source monochromator (λselector) detector readout sample
COMPONENTS OF THE SPECTROPHOTOMETER Emission Source & sample monochromator (λselector) detector readout - Sample is an integral portion of the source - Used to produce the EM radiation that will be measured
COMPONENTS OF THE SPECTROPHOTOMETER Fluorescence Source λselector sample monochromator (λselector) detector readout
LIGHT SOURCE - A steady power supply is essential to provide constant signal Tungsten Filament Lamp - Glows at a temperature near 3000 K - Produces radiation at wavelengths from 320 to 2500 nm - Visible and near IR regions Dueterium (D2) Arc Lamp - D2 molecules are electrically dissociated - Produces radiation at wavelengths from 200 to 400 nm - UV region
LIGHT SOURCE Mercury and Xenon Arc Lamps - Electric discharge lamps - Produce radiation at wavelengths from 200 to 800 nm - UV and Visible regions Silicon Carbide (SiC) Rod - Also called globar - Electrically heated to about 1500 K - Produces radiation at wavelengths from 1200 to 40000 nm - IR region
LIGHT SOURCE Also for IR Region - NiChrome wire (750 nm to 20000 nm) - ZrO2 (400 nm to 20000 nm)
LIGHT SOURCE Laser - Produce specific spectral lines - Used when high intensity line source is required Can be used for UV Visible FTIR
MONOCHROMATOR - Optical device - Disperses a beam of light into its component wavelengths - Allows only a narrow band of wavelengths to pass - Blocks all other wavelengths Components - Two slits (entrance and exit) - Concave Mirrors - Grating
MONOCHROMATOR - Mirror collimates light (parallel rays) - Gating disperses light - Prisms were formerly used to disperse light - Light coming through entrance slit is polychromatic - Light out of exit slit is monochromatic Dispersive Spectrophotometers - Spectrophotometers that use monochromators to select wavelengths
SAMPLE CELL Fused silica Cells (SiO2) - Transmits visible and UV radiation Plastic and Glass Cells - Only good for visible wavelengths NaCl and KBr Crystals - IR wavelengths
DETECTOR - Produces an electric signal proportional to the radiation intensity - Signal is amplified and made available for direct display - A sensitivity control amplifies the signal - May be controlled manually or by a microprocessor (the use of dynodes) Examples Phototube (UV) Photomultiplier tube (UV-Vis) Thermocouple (IR) Thermister (IR)
PHOTODIODE ARRAY SPECTROPHOTOMETER - Records the entire spectrum (all wavelengths) at once - Makes use of a polychromator - The polychromator disperses light into component wavelengths
ANALYSIS OF A MIXTURE - Occurs when there is more than one absorbing species Absorbance at a given λ = sum of absorbances from all species AT = ε1b1c1 + ε2b2c2 + ε3b3c3 + …. For the same sample cell b1 = b2 = b3 = b AT = b(ε1c1 + ε2c2 + ε3c3 + ….)
LUMINESCENCE - Includes any EM emission Emission Intensity (I) I = kPoc k is a proportionality constant Po is the incident radiant power c is the concentration of emitting species - Only holds for low concentrations
LUMINESCENCE Fluorescence - Emission of light from a molecule in an excited state - Initial absorbance followed by emission Phosphorescence - Similar to fluorescence - There is a delay (from seconds to hours) before emission
LUMINESCENCE Photoluminescence (PL) - EM absorption and re-radiation - Period between absorption and emission is usually very short Chemiluminescence (CL) - Emission of light as a result of a chemical reaction Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) - Emission produced during electrochemical reactions - Luminescence as a result of electrochemically generated species
SPECTROELECTROCHEMISTRY • - Spectral and electrochemical signals are simultaneously obtained • - Change in absorbance is concurrent with the electrochemistry • Generally • - Positive scan (oxidation) - absorbance decreases • - Negative scan (reduction) - absorbance increases
SPECTROELECTROCHEMISTRY ipa = anodic peak current ipc = cathodic peak current Modulated Absorbance Am = -log(I/Io)
