Abstract

A static cell has been developed for routine gas phase spectroscopy under high vacuum conditions. Its design provides both reusability and convenience using parts readily available from commercial vendors at an economical price. The cell features a warm-up cycle that keeps the windows free of condensation and an operating range of 300-700 K that offers good uniformity of temperature throughout the cell for extended periods of time. The operation of the cell is illustrated with absorption spectra of a zinc metalloporphyrin in the gas phase.
