Optical-spectroscopic measuring procedures find many applications in the field of process-and laboratory analysis, especially due to their highly sensitive, selective and non-contact measuring method. The optimal function of industrial systems and thus the product quality are very often directly related to the composition of the gas atmosphere inside the system. An industrial-suited, in-situ gas analytics is essential for the quality assurance of chemical coating-, etching- and sintering processes and for the monitoring of emissions from industrial systems.
Furthermore determined analyzers, basing on optical measuring systems, are developed. These analyzers quantify material properties especially of film systems and porous materials. Custom-tailored solutions mainly employ technologies such as infra red-, sensor technology (laser diode spectroscopy, FTIR-/NDIR spectroscopy)
