DXR2 Raman microscopy measures Raman spectra of solid (liquid) materials.

Raman microscopy is a powerful analytical technique used for characterization and analysis of solid and liquid samples in various application fields.

DXR2 Raman microscopy from the company Thermo Fisher Scientific is a combination of the high-performance Raman spectroscopy and components for high-resolution 

chemical imaging analysis. It provides both spectrographic and spatial images of samples. 

The main components of DXR2 Raman microscopy consist of a laser with laser filter, grating, apertures, microscope equipped with Olympus optisc and a CCD detector. 

The DXR2 Raman microscope also consists of a high-precision motorized stage that can be controlled in all three dimensions by the OMNIC™ software suite.

Advantage of DXR2 Raman microscopy:

-Easy to use

-Rapid and non-destructive

-No sample preparation

-No water interference

-Complementary to FTIR

-Ability to analyze samples in the container such as glass, plastic

Raman mapping:

-Spot mapping

-Linear mapping

-Area mapping

-Depth profiles mapping

-Conbination of depth profiles with linear mapping

Light microscope:

-10x, 50x and L50x objectives with long working distance option

-The automated microscope stage allows Raman mapping or Raman imaging, recording Raman spectra as function of the area of a sample. The minimum step size in X,Y and Z direction is 1 μm.
