System Components
The 1290 Infinity Diode-Array Detector
The 1290 Infinity Diode-Array Detector is a new optical design using a 
cartridge cell with optofluidic waveguide technology offering high sensitivity 
with low dispersion, a wide linear range and a very stable baseline for 
standard or ultra-fast LC applications. The Agilent Max-Light cartridge cell 
dramatically increases the light transmission by utilizing the principle of total 
internal reflection along a non-coated fused silica capillary, achieving a new 
level of sensitivity without sacrificing resolution through cell volume 
dispersion effects. This design minimizes baseline perturbations caused by 
refractive index or thermal effects and results in more reliable integration of 
peak areas.
