Gas Wavelength Reference Cells

Gas wavelength reference cells at Precision Glassblowing are one of many products that the company is proud to have actively engaged in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Traceable  Materials program.

Precision Glassblowing’s reference cells contain gases like acetylene, hydrogen cyanide, or iodine. Therefore, they have well-defined absorption spectra. Of course, changes in pressure or temperature can affect the absorption lines, causing shifts or broadening.

Gas Wavelength Reference Cells Standard Sizes and Features

We offer three standard cell sizes: 50mm, 75mm, and 150mm. Each cell has 2° wedged windows assembled at an 11° angle. As a result, this design eliminates back reflections. The all-glass cell is hermetically sealed at an angle to minimize reflections.

NIST Traceable Reference Material

As mentioned, being part of the NIST Traceable Reference Material program enables us to offer HCN – 100 torr cells with the NTRM certificate from NIST. These cells are available as standalone units or packaged in our three-pass housing.
