P r o d u c t I n f o r m a t io nAspect
Aspect Plus is a flexible, modular spectral
analysis software package that runs under MSWindows. Extensions are available to support
specific applications and to implement
standard diagnostic tests. Using Aspect Plus,
spectral measurements and processing can becarried out for the Zeiss MCS 5xx and CORONAseries spectrometers. An extensive set offunctions are available both by menu andmacro to perform measurements, process dataand format displays and printout.

FileThe File menu contains operations that areused for managing files that have beencreated using Aspect Plus or other compatible
programs. Aspect Plus supports the import/
export of GRAMS (spc) ASCII (csv) and JCAMP
format files.

Edit
The Edit menu contains operations that are
useful for inter-program transfer of data. A
Copy command allows a spectrum to be easily
inserted into Windows-based programs such as
word processors.

View
The View menu contains operations that canbe used to alter the visual display of spectra
and the set-up of the screen.

Measurement
The Measurement menu contains thecommands that are used to operate thespectrometer. Sample, reference and dark
spectra can be measured, saved and restored.
Parameter files can be created, loaded andedited. Kinetic data measurements can bedefined and started.

Data Handling
The Data Handling menu allows the user toprocess saved spectra using different
arithmetic operations. Standard available
options include:
Multiplication by or addition ofa constant Conversion, e.g.%T - Abs, nm - cm-1
 1st ... 4th derivative Smoothing Interpolation
 Normalization
 Addition, subtraction,multiplication, division of two spectra
In addition to providing for manipulation andanalysis of spectra, the Data Handling menu
provides a log record of the operations
performed.
Options
The Options Menu provides access to a variety
of useful external programs and methods. These include the creation of calibration files, theestimation of concentrations and themeasurement and evaluation of the kinetics ofreactions. A Windows Notepad editor andCalculator can be accessed from this menu.
The kinetics software module includes theability to calculate kinetic constants fromspectra using the following models: y=bx y=a+bx
 y=a+bx+cx²
 y=a+be-kx
 y=a+bx+ce-kx
 y=a+b(1-e-kx)
 y=a+bx+cx²+dx³
 y=a+bx+cx²+dx³+ex4

Optional Software
A variety of optional software packages areavailable to provide specialized analytical ormethods. These are included as menu items
under the Options menu. They include Multicomponent Analysis, Color Analysis and FilmThickness Analysis.
Vorverstärker

Multi-component Analysis
MCA can be used to perform a classical leastsquare analysis and estimation of theconcentrations for up to eight constituents of aliquid mixture.

The Color software package provides
colorimetric evaluation of spectra. It operates
on transmission spectra of transparent solid or
liquid samples and reflectance spectra ofsolids, powders and opaque samples. The
color algorithms can be applied to spectra
covering the wavelength range from 380 nm
to 780 nm.
The color data that can be calculated are:Tristimulus values X, Y and Z
Chromaticity coordinates x and yColor spaces: CIELAB and CIELUVIndex of metamerism
Color difference
Systemdaten
White/yellow index (or degree of whiteness)

Method Development Module
The Method Development Module provides a
macro development environment that allows
for the automation of measurements,evaluation and result recording. The Module
allows macros to be recorded, edited andexecuted.

Thickness Measurement
The Thickness Measurement software
package provides layer thickness calculationfrom spectra of transparent layers.
