AFM-Raman Spectroscopy

The Integra Spectra II (NT-MDT) instrument combines general purpose AFM with Raman confocal spectrometer in up-right configuration. It allows running most of the AFM modes, including band excitation enabled techniques, as well as collect Raman spectra from corresponding areas.

Specifications

  • Sample size 12×12 mm
  • Scan range (80×80 um)
  • Z height limit (<10 µm)
  • 532 nm laser with up to 2mW power
