Confocal Raman/Fluorescence microscopy |
|
Confocal Raman/Fluorescence/Rayleigh imaging runs simultaneously with AFM (during one sample scan) |
|
Diffraction limited spatial resolution: <200 nm in XY, <500 nm in Z (with immersion objective) |
|
True confocality; push button from software to control the motorized confocal pinhole for optimal signal and confocality |
|
Motorized variable beam expander/collimator: adjusts diameter and collimation of the laser beam individually for each laser and each objective used |
|
Full 3D (XYZ) confocal imaging with powerful image analysis |
|
Hyperspectral imaging (recording complete Raman spectrum in every point of 1D, 2D or 3D confocal scan) with further software analysis |
|
Optical lithography (vector, raster) |
|
AFM/STM: Integration with spectroscopy |
Upright and Inverted optical AFM configurations (optimized for opaque and transparent samples correspondingly);
side illumination option |
|
Highest possible resolution (numerical aperture) optics is used simultaneously with AFM: 0.7 NA for Upright, 1.3–1.4 NA for Inverted |
|
AFM/STM and confocal Raman/Fluorescence images are obtained simultaneously (during one scan) |
|
All standard SPM imaging modes are supported (>30 modes) — combined with confocal Raman/Fluorescence |
|
Low noise AFM/STM (atomic resolution) |
|
Vibrations and thermal drifts originating from optical microscope body are minimized due to special design of optical AFM heads |
|
Focus track feature: sample always stays in focus due to AFM Z-feedback; high quality confocal images of very rough or inclined samples can be obtained |
|
Software |
|
Seamless integration of AFM and Raman; all AFM/ Raman/SNOM experiment and further data analysis is performed in one and the same software |
|
Powerful analysis of 1D, 2D and 3D hyperspectral images |
|
Powerful export to other software (Excel, MatLab, Cytospec etc.) |
|
Spectroscopy* |
|
Extremely high efficiency 520 mm length spectrometer with 4 motorized gratings |
Visible, UV and IR spectral ranges available
|
|
Echelle grating with ultrahigh dispersion; spectral resolution: 0.007 nm (< 0.1 1/cm)** |
Up to 3 different detectors can be installed:
• TE cooled (down to -100 ºC) CCD camera. EMCCD camera is optional — for ultrafast imaging
• Photon multiplier (PMT) or avalanche photodiode in photon counting mode
• Photon multiplier for fast confocal laser (Rayleigh) imaging |
|
Flexible motorized polarization optics in excitation and detection channels, cross-polarized Raman measurements |
|
Fully automated switch between different lasers — with a few mouse clicks |
|
Scanning Near Field Optical Microscopy (SNOM) |
|
Two major SNOM techniques supported: (i) based on quartz fiber probes, (ii) based on silicon cantilever probes |
|
All modes supported: Transmission, Collection, Reflection |
|
All SNOM signals detected: laser intensity, fluorescence intensity, spectroscopy |
|
SNOM lithography (vector, raster) |
|
Optimized for Tip Enhanced Raman Scattering (TERS) and other tip-related optical techniques (S-SNOM, SNIM, TEFS, STM-LE etc. |
|
All existing TERS geometries are available: illumination / collection from bottom, from top or from side |
|
Different SPM techniques and TERS probes can be used: STM, AFM cantilever, quartz tuning fork in tapping and shear force modes |
|
Dual scan (for Hot Point Mapping in TERS): scan by sample AND scan by tip / by laser spot |
|
Motorized polarization optics to produce optimal polarization for TERS |
