XploRA Raman microspectrometer
The equipment offers a complete range of imaging technologies that enable acquiring Raman data from minute traces of material easily producing detailed chemical images and highly specific data from discrete points, lines, areas, and even volumes. With the possibility of using different excitation lasers (785, 532 nm) and three diffraction gratings (2400, 1800 and 1200lines/mm) they enable spectral resolution better than 2 cm-1.
