Sample camera

The sample camera allows you to make an automated recording of sample appearance after the luminescence measurements—for instance for purposes like this:

  • Visual inspection after luminescence data collection.
  • Use of image analysis for determining e.g. number of grains, coverage area, grain size distribution, colour distribution.

The Sample camera attachment is based on:

  • The Imaging Source 1/2.5" Micron CMOS 5Mp camera
  • Computar 3Mp f=25mm lens

The camera is mounted in a mechanical fixture that is vacuum tight, light tight and holds a diffuse light illumination system to assure proper white light illumination of the samples that are photographed. A driver for the illumination light is build into the Risø Controller. The Sequence Editor includes a functions that allow you to set up and use the sample camera in data acquisition sequences.

Note: The sample camera occupies the X-ray irradiator position, so the X-ray irradiator cannot be ordered together with the sample camera attachment.
