Schematic illustration of an ECD instrument. Legend: S, source; M, monochromator (wavelength selector); PEM, photoelastic modulator producing L-CP and R-CP light alternatively; PMT, photomultiplier (detector). A basic VCD instrument has a similar design, except that the monochromator is replaced by an interferometer for Fourier transform.
