(1)Choose the correct answer:
a- High pressure mercury vapor lamp can be considered as a source of the following type of spectra:
Visible spectra Infra red yellow line spectra U.V. spectra
b - Quartz is used as an optical material in the range:
UV +Visible Visible + near IR Visible up to far IR U.V.+ Visible+ near IR
c - Fluorescence spectra radiates when atomic energy transition from energy level En to energy level Em
where:
En < Em En > Em and m>1 En not equal to Em En < Em and n> 1
e - The wavelength at which the maximum emissive power of the radiated spectra from an oven occurs
at λ = 1172 nm, its temperature is:
3500 0
k 2000 0
k 5500 0
k 4000 0

2. (3) Draw a clear diagram showing each part of the optical design of the two-mirror Ebert
mounting monochromator. State the function of each its parts.
3. (4) The ionization potential energy of an hydrogen like atom is 54.4 ev. If it is excited by a beam of
wavelength 23.6<λ<24.2 , find the characteristic wavelengths of the resulting :
(a) Absorption, (b) Emission, and (c) Fluorescent spectra.
Illustrate your answer by an energy level diagram.
