Raman Microscope Horiba JY T64000 - UH Description: based on a triple Raman spectrometer equipped with an open frame microscope that can work in conjunction with cryostats (available in the laboratory), AFM, and additional inverted microscopes. Detection is provided by two CCDs detectors optimized for work in 300-600 nm and 550-1100 nm spectral range, respectively. Two laser sources are currently operational – a HeNe laser 17 mW, a tunable Ar laser operating at 488 and 514 nm. The instrumentation is also capable to measure fluorescence emission. A motorized XYZ microscope stage moving at steps as small as 0.1 microns allows 2D and 3D chemical mapping. Z-motion (focus direction) can also be control through an autofocus system. A mapping scan with the Raman Microscope generates a hyperspectral image of which each pixel contains a full Raman or fluorescence spectrum.
