White papers
In this White Paper, Raptor’s Dr. Geoff Martin, gives an overview of InGaAs based detectors for imaging in SWIR and the benefits of vacuum-based cooling.
In this application note featuring the QE Pro-Raman+ spectrometer, we examine the curing rate of a two-part epoxy as a model system for monitoring the kinetics and reaction completion of industrial processes.
This paper describes in detail how Newport rotation stages by MKS Instruments can be used to adjust laser power by changing the position of wave plates or polarizers.
