UV-visible spectroscopy uses light in the UV and visible ranges. It works by passing light through a sample and measuring how much light is absorbed. Key components are a light source, monochromator, sample cell, detector, and recorder. For UV light a hydrogen lamp is used as the source and quartz is used for the cell and prism. It can be used to identify functional groups and conjugation, detect impurities, and determine molecular structure and in quantitative analysis. Applications include qualitative and quantitative analysis of organic compounds.
UV VISIBLE SPECTROSCOPY is a technique that uses the absorption of ultraviolet or visible radiation to determine the electronic and geometric structure of molecules. It works by measuring the amount of light absorbed by a sample at each wavelength across the UV-VIS spectrum. The amount of absorption follows the Beer-Lambert law, which states that absorbance is directly proportional to concentration, path length, and absorptivity. UV-VIS spectroscopy can be used to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze compounds, determine functional groups, study conjugation, identify unknowns, and more. It has advantages of being rapid, nondestructive, and sensitive, though it is limited to compounds that absorb in the UV-VIS range.
Optical techniques like photometry, spectrophotometry, and colorimetry are used in clinical laboratories. They are based on Beer's law and Lambert's law. Spectrophotometry measures light intensity at selected wavelengths using a light source, monochromator, sample cuvettes, detector, and display. It provides more sensitivity than colorimetry which determines color intensity based on light absorption. Both techniques rely on the principle that absorbed light is inversely proportional to concentration according to Beer-Lambert's law.
A spectrophotometer uses monochromatic light to measure the absorbance of light by a sample, allowing identification and quantification of compounds. It works by passing light through a sample and measuring the intensity of transmitted light, using this to determine concentration according to the Beer-Lambert law.

Key applications of the Nanodrop include quantifying DNA, RNA, and proteins as well as measuring purity based on absorbance ratios.
This document discusses nephelometry and turbidimetry techniques for measuring light scattering in solutions. Nephelometry measures scattered light at a 90 degree angle to the incident light beam, while turbidimetry measures transmitted light at 180 degrees. Both techniques can be used to determine particle concentrations but nephelometry is more accurate for low concentrations. Common applications include analyzing water quality and determining inorganic substances or biochemicals. Key factors affecting the measurements are particle concentration, size, shape, and wavelength of light used.
Spectroscopy is the measurement and interpretation of electromagnetic radiation absorbed or emitted when the molecules or atoms or ions of a sample move from one energy state to another energy state. UV spectroscopy is a type of absorption spectroscopy in which light of the ultra-violet region (200-400 nm) is absorbed by the molecule which results in the excitation of the electrons from the ground state to a higher energy state.Basically, spectroscopy is related to the interaction of light with matter.
As light is absorbed by matter, the result is an increase in the energy content of the atoms or molecules.
When ultraviolet radiations are absorbed, this results in the excitation of the electrons from the ground state towards a higher energy state.
Molecules containing π-electrons or nonbonding electrons (n-electrons) can absorb energy in the form of ultraviolet light to excite these electrons to higher anti-bonding molecular orbitals.
The more easily excited the electrons, the longer the wavelength of light they can absorb. There are four possible types of transitions (π–π*, n–π*, σ–σ*, and n–σ*), and they can be ordered as follows: σ–σ* > n–σ* > π–π* > n–π* The absorption of ultraviolet light by a chemical compound will produce a distinct spectrum that aids in the identification of the compound.
Spectrophotometry uses spectrophotometers to measure how much light is absorbed by a sample as a function of wavelength. A spectrophotometer directs light from a source through a sample and measures the amount of light transmitted. There are two main types - single beam spectrometers which measure one sample at a time, and double beam spectrometers which simultaneously measure a sample and reference. Spectrophotometers can be classified by the wavelength range used such as visible, UV, or infrared. They consist of a light source, dispersion elements, focusing elements, sample cells, detectors, and displays. Spectrophotometers are used to determine concentrations, identify compounds, and measure color.
This document provides an overview of spectrophotometry and colorimetry. It discusses the basic principles including how spectrophotometry follows Beer's law and relates light absorption to sample concentration. It describes the history and development of spectrophotometry instrumentation. The basic components and mechanisms of spectrophotometers are outlined. Applications of spectrophotometry include concentration measurement, detection of impurities, and molecular weight determination. Colorimetry is similar but uses only the visible light range. Spectrophotometry has advantages over colorimetry in being able to measure a broader electromagnetic spectrum.
Spectrophotometer:
- Measures intensity of light passing through a sample solution
- Can use wider range of wavelengths than a colorimeter, which is limited to visible range
- Has a sample holder between a monochromator and detector to hold samples between light source and detector
- Used to determine concentration of compounds by measuring absorbance values at specific wavelengths based on Beer-Lambert Law
Light Scattering Phenomenon:
The blue color of the sky and the red color of the sun at sunset result from scattering of light of small dust particles, H2O molecules and other gases in the atmosphere.
The efficiency with which light is scattered depends on its wavelength(λ).
The sky is blue because violet and blue light are scattered to a greater extent than other longer wavelengths.
A clear cloudless day-time sky is blue because molecules in the air scatter blue light from the sun more than they scatter red light.
When we look towards the sun at sunset, we see red and orange colours because the blue light has been scattered out and away from the line of sight.
Scattered radiation:
• Radiate scattering- second major spectral method of analysis.
• In this technique some radiation that passes through a sample strikes particles of the analyte and is scattered in a different direction.
• A detector is used to measure either the intensity of the scattered radiation or the decreased intensity of the incident radiation
• Depending on the scattering mechanism, the method can be employed for either qualitative or quantitative analysis.
For chemical analysis three forms of radiative scattering are important – viz.
Tyndall,
Raman, and
Rayleigh scattering.
Tyndall Scattering occurs when the dimensions of the particles that are causing the scattering are larger than the wavelength of the scattered radiation.
It is caused by reflection of the incident radiation from the surfaces of the particles,
reflection from the interior walls of the particles, and refraction and diffraction of the radiation as it passes through the particles.
Scattering of light
- by particles in a colloid or suspension.
The longer-wavelength light is more transmitted while the shorter- wavelength light is more reflected via scattering
Nephelometry & Turbidimetry:
When electromagnetic radiation (light) strikes a particle in solution, some of the light will be absorbed by the particle, some will be transmitted through the solution and some of the light will be scattered or reflected .
The amount of light scattered is proportional to the concentration of insoluble particle.
In Nephelometry, the intensity of the scattered light is measured.
In Turbidimetry, the intensity of light transmitted through the medium, the unscattered light, is measured. Light scattering is the physical phenomenon resulting from the interaction of light with a particles in solution
Turbidimetry is involved with measuring the amount of transmitted light (and calculating the absorbed light) by particles in suspension to determine the concentration of the substance in question.
Amount of absorbed light, and therefore, concentration is dependent on ;
1) number of particles, and
2) size of particles.

3. Introduction
• Spectrophotometry is a method that hinges on the quantitative
analysis of molecules depending on how much light is absorbed by
coloured compounds.
• Important features of spectrophotometers are spectral bandwidth
(the range of colours it can transmit through the test sample), the
percentage of sample transmission, the logarithmic range of sample
absorption, and sometimes a percentage of reflectance
measurement.
• Photometry is the measurement of the amount of luminous light
(luminous intensity) falling on a surface from a source.

4. Intro cont’d
• Spectrophotometry is a scientific analytical technique based on the
absorption of light by a solution at a particular wavelength with
relevant properties of the solution., e.g., concentration.
• Spectrophotometry depends on the light-absorbing properties of
substances or a derivative of the substance being analyzed.
• An instrument for measuring the intensity of light in a part of the
spectrum, as transmitted or emitted by particular substances is a
spectrophotometer
4
5. Light spectroscopy
• Light is a form of energy propagating into space at a very high speed.
• As an electromagnetic wave travelling into space – it is radiant energy.
• The energy of light oscillates periodically between a minimum and a
maximum as a function of time – like a wave.
• The distance between two maxima or two minima, respectively of the
electromagnetic wave is defined as the wavelength, given in
nanometers (nm).
• Light behaves like discrete energy packets called photons whose
energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength
• The shorter the wavelength, the higher the energy
5
7. Light spectroscopy cont’d
• Thus, the different components of light are characterised by a specific
wavelength.
• The sum of all components i.e. of all wavelengths, is called a
spectrum.
• More specifically, a spectrum represents a distribution of radiant
energy.
• For instance, the electromagnetic spectrum of visible light ranges
from approximately 390nm up to approximately 780 nm with
different colours.
• Each colour has a specific wavelength, e.g. red light has a wavelength
of 660 nm, while green light has a wavelength of 520 nm.
7
9. Light spectroscopy cont’d
• Optical spectroscopy is based on the interaction of light with matter.
• The light which is not absorbed by the object is reflected and can be
seen by the eye
9
11. Beer’s Law
• The absorbance of light is directly proportional to both the
concentration of the absorbing medium and the thickness of the
medium.
• In Spectrophotometry the thickness of the medium is called the path
length.
• Beer’s law allows the measurement of samples of differing pathlength
and compares the results directly with each other.
• In basic terms: Absorbance = Concentration × Pathlength
11
13. Lambert’s Law
• The proportion of light absorbed by a medium is independent of the
intensity of incident light.
• A sample which absorbs 75% (25% transmittance) of the light will always
absorb 75% of the light, no matter the strength of the light source.
• Lambert’s law is expressed as I/Io=T
Where I = Intensity of transmitted light
Io = Intensity of the incident light
T = Transmittance
• This allows different spectrophotometers with different light sources to
produce comparable absorption readings independent of the power of the
light source.
13
14. Beer-Lambert law
• When light, passes through a transparent cuvette filled with sample
solution, the light intensity is attenuated proportionally to the sample
concentration. In other words, a highly concentrated sample solution
will absorb more light.
• In addition, the attenuation is also proportional to the length of the
cuvette; a longer cuvette will lead to a higher absorption of light.
14
16. This relationship is called the Lambert-Beer law where:
1. The sample concentration is c.
2. The path length, d of the cuvette.
3. The extinction coefficient ε (epsilon) is a sample-specific constant
describing how much the sample is absorbing at a given wavelength
• When the path length is 1 cm and the concentration is 1% w/v, the
extinction coefficient is called specific absorbance (E )
16
17. • The Lambert-Beer law allows for the determination of the sample
concentration from the measured absorbance value. If the extinction
coefficient ε and the path length d are known, then concentration c
can be calculated from absorbance A as given below:
17
18. Beer’s law holds if the following conditions are met
• Incident radiation on the substance of interest is monochromatic.
• The solvent absorption is insignificant compared with the solute
absorbance.
• The solute concentration is within given limits.
• An optical interference is not present.
• A chemical reaction does not occur between the molecules of interest
and another solute or solvent molecule.
• The sides of the cell are parallel
18
19. Calibration curve/ standard curve
• A solution of known concentration is prepared.
• Serial dilutions up to about 5 solutions of different concentrations.
• Spectrophotometric absorbance is set at zero using a blank.
• Measurement of absorbances of the solutions.
• Plotting of absorbances(y axis) against concentrations (x axis).
• Determination of the concentration of unknown solution using the
graph.

21. Principles of Spectrophotometry
The spectrophotometry technique is used to measure light intensity as
a function of wavelength using a spectrophotometer.
And this is achieved through:
1. Diffraction of the light beam into a spectrum of wavelengths
2. Directing the diffracted light onto an object
3. Reception of the light reflected or returned from the object
4. Detecting the intensities with a charge-coupled device
5. Displaying the results as a graph on the detector and then the
display device 21
24. Lamp source
1. Incandescent lamps
UV spectrum
• Deuterium-discharge lamp
• Mercury arc lamp
• Xenon arc lamp
• Hydrogen lamp
Visible and near infrared region
• Tungsten halogen lamp containing
• iodine or bromine
2. Laser (Light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation)
• This is a device used in spectrophotometry, which transform light of various frequencies into an extremely
intense, focused, and nearly non divergent beam of monochromatic light. 24
25. Important factors for a light source
• Range
• Spectral distribution within the range
• Stability of radiant energy
• Source of radiant production
• Temperature
25
26. Monochromator
• Necessary to isolate a desired wavelength of light and exclude other
wavelengths
• Wavelength isolation is a function of the type of device used and the
width of the entrance and exit slits.
• Devices used to obtain monochromatic light include
• Filters (colored glass and interference)
• Prisms
• Diffraction gratings
26
27. Colored glass filters
• Least expensive
• Simple, although not always precise
• Usually pass a relatively wide band of radiant energy
Interference filters
• Produces a monochromatic light based on the principle of constructive
interference of waves
Prism
• A narrow beam of light focused on a prism is refracted as it enters the denser
glass.
• The prism can be rotated, allowing only the desired wavelength to pass through
an exit slit.
27
28. Diffraction gratings
• Most commonly used as monochromators.
• Diffraction (the separation of light into component wavelengths), is
based on the principle that wavelengths bend as they pass a sharp
corner. The degree of bending depends on the wavelength
• Diffraction grating consists of many parallel grooves (15,000-30,000
per inch) etched onto a polished surface.
• Because the multiple spectra have a tendency to cause stray light
problems, accessory filters are used.
28
29. Cuvette/sample cell
• Are small vessels used to hold liquid samples to be analysed in the
light path of the spectrophotometer.
• Can be round or square
• Square cuvettes have advantages over round cuvettes in that there is
less error from lens effects, orientation and refraction.
• It can be made of Glass (Visible range), or quartz(UV & Visible range)
• Light path must be kept constant
• Cuvettes with scratched optical surfaces should be discarded as they
scatter light.
29
30. Photodetector
• Detects transmitted radiant energy and converts it into an equivalent
amount of electricity
Types include:
• Photocell/Barrier layer cell
• Phototube
• Photomultiplier tube
• Photodiode
30
31. Photocells/Barrier layer cell:
• Least expensive and durable
• Composed of a film of light sensitive materials: Selenium on a plate of iron
covered by a thin transparent layer of silver
• When exposed to light, electrons in the light sensitive materials are excited
and released to flow through highly conductive silver
• Resistance prevents ions from flowing in the opposite direction towards
the iron thus forming a barrier.
• EMF is generated from the resistance which can be measured.
• It is temperature sensitive and becomes non linear at very high or very low
levels of illumination.
• Output is not easily amplified so it is used in instruments with illumination
levels such that there is no need to amplify the signals.
• Light-sensitive
31
32. Phototube
• Similar to photocell but needs an outside voltage to operate it.
• Contains cathode and anode enclosed in a glass case
• Cathode: made up of lithium or rubidium that acts as a resistor in the
dark but emits electrons when exposed to light.
• The emitted electrons jump over to the positively charged anode
where they are collected and return through an external measurable
circuit
32
33. Photomultiplier(pm) tube
• Detects and amplifies radiant energy, hence more sensitive than the
phototube.
• Incident light strikes the coated cathode emitting electrons
• The electrons are attracted to a series of anodes known as dynodes each
having a successively higher positive voltage
• These dynodes are of a material that gives off many secondary electrons
when hit by a single electron
• Initial electron emission at the cathode triggers a multiple cascade of
electrons within the PM tube
• The accumulation of light striking the anode produces a current signal
measured in amperes
• They are used in instruments designed to be extremely sensitive to very
low light levels and light flashes of very short duration
33
34. Photodiode
• In a photodiode, absorption of radiant energy by a reverse-biased pn-
junction diode (pn, positive-negative) produces a photocurrent that is
proportional to the incident radiant power.
• Photodiode array (PDA) detectors are available in integrated circuits
containing 256 to 2,048 photodiodes in a linear arrangement
• Each photodiode responds to a specific wavelength,
• Its excellent linearity (6–7 decades of radiant power), speed, and
small size make them useful in applications where light levels are
adequate
34
35. Readout devices
Analog
• Uses deflector pin on a meter
• Zero error is common
• Parallax error
• Easily affected by current/light voltage
• No longer popular
Digital
• Now common with newer spec
• Limit zero error
• No parallax error
35
37. A. Based on electromagnetic form
1. UV spectrophotometry
• Uses light over the UV range (180-
400nm)
• A prism of suitable material and
geometry will provide a continuous
spectrum in which the component
wavelengths are separated in space
• In addition to prisms, diffraction
gratings are also employed for
producing monochromatic light
• Quartz cuvettes used to hold
samples
37
38. 2. ViS Spectrophotometry
• Uses the visible range (~400-700nm) of the electromagnetic radiation
spectrum
• Plastic or glass cuvettes can be used for visible spectrophotometry
3. Infrared spectroscopy (IR)
Infrared spectrum refers to a spectrum greater than 760nm, which
is the most commonly used spectral region of organic compounds,
and can analyze a variety of conditions (gas, liquid, solid) of the sample.
38
39. 39
B. Based on Geometry designs
1. Scanning spectrophotometer
• The working principle of a conventional scanning spectrophotometer
is based on the measurement of the transmittance value at each
single wavelength.
• The transmittance at this specific wavelength is recorded. The whole
spectrum is obtained by continuously changing the wavelength of the
light (i.e. scanning) incoming onto the sample solution by rotating the
grating
41. 41
2. Array spectrophotometer
• In this configuration, the sample in the cuvette simultaneously absorbs
different wavelengths of light. The transmitted light is then diffracted by a
reflection grating located after the cuvette
• Subsequently, the diffracted light of various wavelengths is directed onto
the detector.
• The detector, with its long array of photosensitive, semiconductor
material, allows for simultaneous measurement of all wavelengths of the
transmitted light beam.
• This design is also known as "reverse optics"
43. 43
C. Based on optical paths
1. Single beam configuration
The light beam is directly guided through the sample onto the
detector. A cuvette containing only solvent has to be measured
first to determine the blank value. After measuring the blank
value, the solvent cuvette is replaced by a cuvette containing the
sample to measure the absorption spectrum of the sample.
44. 2. Double-beam configuration
In a double-beam configuration, the light beam is split into a
reference and a sample beam.
a) Simultaneous in time: The light beam of the lamp is split into two
beams of equal intensities. Each beam passes through a different
cuvette; one is the reference cuvette, whereas the second cuvette
contains the sample solution. The intensities of both beams are
measured simultaneously by two detectors.
44
46. 46
b) Alternating in time: This configuration is achieved by directing
the light path with an optical chopper (OC), which is a rotating
sectional mirror. The light is directed alternately through a
sample and a reference cell. A unique detector measures both
light beams one after the other.
47. Interference
• Interference is phenomenon that leads to changes in intensity of the
signal in spectrophotometry.
Types of interference
• Optical interference is a phenomenon in which two wavelengths
superimpose to form a greater or lower wavelengths.
• Chemical interference arises out of the reaction between different
interferents and the analyte.
• Physical interference are due to physical properties of the sample e.g.
impurities in the solution
47
48. Quality assurance
Wavelength accuracy
• Checked using standard absorbing solutions or filters with maximal
absorbance of known wavelength.
Stray light
• Refers to any wavelength outside the band transmitted by the
monochromator. Most common causes are light reflection from scratches
on optical surfaces or dust particles in the light path. Stray light is detected
and eliminated by using cutoff filters.
Linearity
• Refers to the difference between the actually measured value and the
value derived from the equation. It is checked using coloured solutions of
different concentrations labelled with expected absorbances.
48

51
52. Conclusion
• The use of spectrophotometers spans various scientific fields,
such as physics, materials
science, chemistry, biochemistry, chemical engineering,
and molecular biology semiconductors, laser and optical
manufacturing, printing and forensic examination, as well as in
laboratories for the study of chemical substances.
• Spectrophotometry continues to enjoy wide popularity due to the
common availability of its instrumentation and simplicity of
procedures, as well as speed, precision and accuracy of its technique.
