    摘要: The approximation of a spectral continuum by determining a plurality of minima in the spectral data; splitting the spectral data into a predetermined number of groups N; for each group of spectral data, determining major minima for the group, and calculating an average and a standard deviation for the determined major minima; determining a polynomial function that can be drawn through the major minima of all groups; for each group of spectral data, determining minor minima; calculating an average deviation (ΦN) between this polynomial function and the determined minor minima; reducing the number of groups, and repeating this process for the reduced number of groups until a minimum number of groups is reached. Then, the least ΦN corresponding to an optimal number of groups Nopt is determined. The spectral data is split into Nopt groups; and a polynomial function that can be drawn through both the major minima and minor minima is determined for Nopt groups. This polynomial function approximates the spectral continuum.

    摘要: Raman spectroscopy uses a resonance ionization detector. In particular, a first laser source is provided for application of laser energy to a sample cell. A second laser source provides energy to the ionization detector, which ionization detector includes metal vapor having at least three energy states or levels. The laser from the second laser source has a frequency such that it will promote the metal vapor from one of its levels to a higher level, whereas the first laser source is tunable such that upon Raman scatter from the sample cell promoting the metal vapor as well, the metal atoms will be ionized and the ionization detector will detect the scatter from the sample material. The scatter from the sample cell is provided to the ionization detector by way of an optical coupler such as a lens. The ionization detector may be a flame-type ionization detector, a metal vapor cell ionization detector, for a glow discharge tube (such as a hollow cathode lamp) ionization detector.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for scientific analysis of a sample under low temperature vacuum conditions uses a vacuum chamber with a conveyor belt disposed therein. One end of the conveyor belt is a cool end in thermal contact with the cold stage of a refrigerator, whereas the other end of the conveyor belt is a warm end spaced from the refrigerator. A septum allows injection of a sample into the vacuum chamber on top of the conveyor belt for spectroscopic or other analysis. The sample freezes on the conveyor belt at the cold end. One or more windows in the vacuum chamber housing allow spectroscopic analysis of the sample. Following the spectroscopic analysis, the conveyor belt may be moved such that the sample moves toward the warm end of the conveyor belt where upon it evaporates, thereby cleaning the conveyor belt. Instead of injecting the sample by way of a septum and use of a syringe and needle, the present device may be used in series with capillary-column gas chromatography or micro-bore high performance liquid chromatography.
