High-Resolution Imaging meets High-Resolution Spectroscopy
Apr 09 2015
WITec launched its fully automated, easy-to-use, class-leading Raman imaging syste apyron, featuring advanced spectral resolution in 3D confocal Raman imaging and extremely sensitive laser power determination with a mouse click.
The apyron Raman microscope system includes laser wavelength selection with subsequent adjustment of all associated spectrometer and microscope components to ensure optimised system performance. The absolute laser power determination and regulation in 0.1milliwatt steps preserves delicate samples and guarantees the reproducibility of measurement conditions. The UHTS 600, a new 600 mm focal length spectrometer designed specifically for automated Raman imaging, enables challenging experiments at even very low light intensities.
Versions are available for a wide variety of excitation wavelengths and optimised for their specific lasers. Spectral resolution is said to be unprecedented, down to 0.1 rel 1/cm per pixel (@633 nm excitation). Highly detailed spectral information is given for every image pixel, and more than 16 mio. Raman spectra can be acquired in a single dataset. The system set-up includes TrueSignal to maximise the light into the fiber output of the microscope.
“apyron has been developed to erase the boundary between ease-of-use and ultimate capability in Raman imaging.” explains Harald Fischer, WITec Marketing Director, “It sets a new benchmark for automated Raman imaging systems regarding sensitivity, speed and operator convenience.”
