• The sample reflectance depends upon sample handling factors, such as the
packing density, surface uniformity, and characteristics of the sample. Finely
ground powder samples will give different reflectance results than the same
sample when measured in its coarse, granular, or pressed powder form. The
spectrum shape of the sample reflectance does not change with packing density,
that is, the peak location does not change. Only the relative reflectance value
changes with changes in the sample packing density.
• If you wish to compare subsequent sample measurements, take care to ensure that
sample presentation to the beam and packing density are identical between scans.
Double aperture accessory
The double aperture accessory is used to determine the absolute photometric accuracy of
the DRA in the UV-VIS and NIR spectral range. The accessory mounts directly in the
sample beam path on the base plate.
Components accompanying the double aperture apparatus include the following:
• Base mount
• Aperture plate
• Masking Wheel
• Assorted fasteners
A detailed explanation of the double aperture method is provided in the Validate
section
of the Help.
