Micro-Raman Microscope

 

Point Analysis

The Raman Microscope takes utilizes the phenomenon of Raman scattering to extract information about bonding in materials.  The Raman microscope provides micrometer scale resolution allowing for analysis of micrometer-size particles (or in some cases smaller).  Through interpretation and comparison against our Raman spectral libraries, which contain several thousand compounds, we can use the information in the Raman spectrum to identify unknown particles or characterize the properties of materials.

Raman Mapping

Raman mapping provides a way to carry out time, depth or area resolved maps of samples to follow the progress of chemical reactions as they occur, look for heterogeneities in surfaces or changes in surface chemistry or changes in a sample with depth.
