Microspectrophotometer

Photonics Tech Briefs INSIDER

CRAIC Technologies (San Dimas, CA) has announced the addition of Raman microspectroscopy capabilities to its flagship product: the 20/20 Perfect Vision™ microspectrophotometer. The 20/20 PV™ microspectrophotometer is a self-contained unit that features advanced UV-visible-NIR light sources, solid state lasers, true UV-visible-NIR microscopy, sensitive UV-visible-NIR range spectrometers and sophisticated MINERVA™ spectral software. Raman microspectroscopy is added with the Apollo™ Raman microspectroscopy packages. Users of the 20/20 PV™ now have the ability to acquire Raman spectra, with lasers from the blue to the near infrared, in addition to UV- visible-NIR absorbance, reflectance, fluorescence and emission microspectra™. The 20/20 PV is able to acquire all these types of spectra of even sub-micron samples, as well as acquiring all these spectra from the same area because it features CRAIC Technologies proprietary optical aperturing technology.
