The Ossila Optical Spectroscopy Kit comes with everything you need to get set up and start optically characterising your materials, and more. At the heart of the setup is the Ossila USB Spectrometer, a compact but powerful UV-Vis-NIR (320 nm to 1050 nm) spectrometer which features both a USB power and data connector and a six port I/O expansion header for maximum versatility.
The kit also includes a protective case, an LED broadband white light source, UV light source, cuvette holder, four-port transmission holder, two SMA optical fibers, an optical breadboard plate, and a high-performance optical mirror. Available at a discounted price (compared to when bought separately) with free shipping, we have put this bundle together to make optical spectroscopy cheaper and easier for researchers, students, and teachers around the world.

Optical Spectroscopy Kit Features
Complete Optical Spectroscopy Kit
Everything you need to start optically characterizing your materials and more. Alongside our USB-powered optical spectrometer, the kit includes a protective case, two light sources, cuvette holder, transmission holder, two optical fibers, an optical breadboard, and an optical mirror.
Dynamic Spectral Range
Our system measures the full visible light spectrum, from the UV-A band to near infrared, covering 320 nm to 1050 nm with a resolution of up to 2.5 nm. It can be used to study a wide variety of materials, including photovoltaic cells, solar cells, OLEDs, biological samples, and 2D materials.
Fast Acquisition Speeds
A powerful Arm Cortex M4 processor works with a high-speed 16-bit, 500 kSPS, analog-to-digital converter. Our system can transfer over 100 frames-per-second to the host computer when running in internal trigger mode. Plus, a six port I/O expansion header allows for easy integration with other 5V equipment.
Internal and External Trigger Modes
Operate it in free-running mode or connect it to other systems using the external trigger input. The rolling integration mode offers dynamic control over integration time. Plus, it provides an output for synchronizing acquisition with an external shutter and has two general-purpose outputs. In total, it has six I/O ports, including a ground port.
