Picosecond Transient Absorption Spectroscopy System picoTAS

picoTAS can measure wide time range including "Gap Time Region" (1–20 nanosecond) in conventional transient absorption methods by using newly developed RIPT method (Randomly Interleaved Pulse Train method).
In addition, picoTAS has a capability of eliminating the influence of fluorescence.
Therefore, picoTAS can measure many photo-induced reactions which never have been observed, and new research opportunities will be opened up by exploring those phenomena.
