* – working spectrum range with MAES |
Each cell of MAES is based on a photodiode with high UV sensitivity up to 160nm w/o using luminophores.
Using arrays of photodiodes provides a number of significant advantages: photo-cells begin and end signal accumulation at the same time with no distortion of signal in photo-cell located next to the bright spectral lines (no blooming).
Multichip assembly contain photodiode arrays mounted on a thermally stabilized common base. Stabilization of photovoltaic parameters and decreasing sensitivity threshold of assembly cells are carried out by reducing and stabilizing their temperature using Peltier microcoolers.
due to the automatic correction of the spectrum temperature shift by means of 2 to 3 reference lines per assembly it's practically impossible that the spectral lines walk will impact the result of atomic-emission analysis .
