Education
B&W Tek components come together to create customized configurations that teach and inspire future spectroscopists.
Education Application Notes
Education in spectroscopy is enabling the next-generation of scientists to harness the power of light to change the world. Atomic clocks and quantum computing are all based around the utilization of spectroscopy to push the limits of science. Read more in the application notes below.
Component Spectrometers for Fluorescence
Thermo-electrically (TE) cooled detectors deliver lower noise over longer integration times, enabling lower detection limits in fluorescence measurements. Learn more about the advantages of a compact, TE-cooled component spectrometer for fluorescence spectroscopy.

Proper Care and Handling of Fiber Optic Cables
Fiber optic cables transport light over long distances with remarkable efficiency; however, they require proper handling and care to maintain their performance. Learn more about the proper care and feeding of fiber optic cables in this application note.
Raman Spectroscopy in Archaeological Studies
Chemical identification is an integral part of studying archaeological artifacts and artworks. This information can be obtained through non-destructive Raman analysis directly within the environment where the artifacts are discovered. Identify pigments, dyes and paints to gain insight into a piece’s creation and to confirm authenticity.
