Even though the long-pass filter removes the majority of the reflected STED laser light, it was attenuated further by several neutral density filters adding up to 3.3 4.6 OD to avoid detector saturation.
To this end, the reflected light of the much stronger STED laser was specifically dampened by a dichroic mirror before general dampening of all reflected light to avoid detector saturation (Supplementary Fig. 1).
The dynamic range was sufficient for temperature measurements ranging from 300 K to 2200 K, although some detector saturation was observed for low temperature spectra.
Detector saturation, contamination of the sample with drilling fluid, and suppression of both Tmax and vitrinite reflectance, are examples of complications that could compromise the validity of the results and the play or prospect reviews derived from them.
The detector technology typically used for protein imaging, a microchannel plate, is not well suited to the detection of high m/z ions and is prone to detector saturation when analyzing complex mixtures.
Here we report increased sensitivity for higher mass proteins by using the CovalX high mass HM1 detector (Zurich, Switzerland), which has been specifically designed for the detection of high mass ions and which is much less prone to detector saturation.
Detector saturation was not a problem without 90Y bremsstrahlung shielding.
The maximum detected H2 concentration was >0.11 % (detector saturation), with an average of 233 ppm across 23 measurements (Additional file 1: Table SI-1).
A previous patient study on the Biograph mCT suggests that doses of 82Rb <1110 MBq can avoid significant detector saturation [29].
K i is the constant related to sensor such as electronic gain, the detector saturation electrons, the quantization levels, the area of the entrance aperture, and so on.
However, this detector was found to have limited application due to the fact that it required a significantly large number of looks to avoid detector saturation [18].
