About Instrument and its Applications:
The Bl-200SM Research Goniometer System provides access to all of these studies with an automatic, modular, and versatile system. It is a precision instrument designed for exacting scattering measurements. Based on a special turntable with precision ball bearings and stepping motor, the Bl-200SM’s modern design and quality construction guarantee precise measurements due to the wobble-free movement of the detector. It is field proven in hundreds of laboratories. It is ideal for macro-molecular studies and submicron particle sizing.
By taking advantage of the multiple inputs available on the TurboCorr correlator a new capability of the BI-200SM system is created. By adding an optical signal splitter to the beam of scattered light and a second detector it is possible to eliminate the effects of very high speed interference from the detector(s). This Cross Correlation System provides remarkably clean information as seen in the article we have presented.
The BI-200SM’s modularity simplifies system expansion. Featuring a standard optical rail, the BI-200SM can be used with neutral density filters, a polarizer, an analyzer, and a reference detector. Special sample requirements can often be met by changing the cell holder design or size.
