In the chemistry, pharmaceutical, materials testing, and petrochemical industries, the ability to quickly analyze and identify a substance is key. One solution is to use a Raman spectrometer. By taking advantage of the scattering of laser light hitting a sample, a Raman spectrometer can read the subtle energy shift in the scattered light caused by the vibration of the substance undergoing analysis. Raman spectrometers typically employ diode or gas lasers of 532 or 785 nm. For applications like forensics, where samples are often contaminated, some Raman spectrometers offer wavelengths of 1064 to filter fluorescence at the cost of overall sensitivity.
Considerations for purchasing a Raman spectrometer
Detectors for Raman spectrometers include CCD arrays, InGaAs, or Ge types. Some Raman spectrometer systems are coupled with high-end microscopes for micro molecular analysis.

Description | The NRS-5500 Series Confocal Raman Microscope is a research grade confocal Raman microscope with f300 spectrograph that combines the flexibility of multiple detectors and multiple laser sources to quickly change between measurement modes for fast data acquisition to reduce experimental time. A The NRS-5500 Series Confocal Raman Microscope is a research grade confocal Raman microscope with f300 spectrograph that combines the flexibility of multiple detectors and multiple laser sources to quickly change between measurement modes for fast data acquisition to reduce experimental time. A number of unique technologies have been developed to improve measurement efficiency; these include - QRi for very fast imaging with high resolution auto-stage
- SPRIntS for fast mapping without the necessity of moving the sample stage
- SRI (Spatial Resolution Image) for simultaneously viewing the sample image and laser spot.
- DSF (Dual Spatial Filtration) which optimizes confocal focusing of the image produced by the objective lens to reduce aberration and improve spatial resolution and reduce the effects of matrix fluorescence.

Although the RMP-510 is described as a portable Raman spectrometer, this is largely due to its robust optical design and tolerance to being transported. In fact the optical performance is close to that of a conventional bench top Raman system and offers many of the same features like interchangeable grating monochromators for a range of spectral resolutions. Spectra Manager Software simplifies data collection and analysis. Sadtler KnowItAll ™ software is included for library searching and sample database creation. Installation and training are included.... Read More |
