Confocal Raman imaging and related techniques continue to increase in popularity. This whitepaper describes five key factors to consider when evaluating instrumentation: speed, sensitivity, resolution, modularity and upgradeability, and combinability.
The Confocal Raman Imaging Symposium, which took place for the 15th time in Ulm, was like a big family reunion with both familiar and new faces
Witec has launched the Alpha300 Ri inverted Raman microscope. It combines the advantages of data acquisition from below with the established merits of 3D confocal Raman imaging, a powerful and versatile technique that can chemically characterise samples non-destructively and without labelling or other specialised preparation
WITec, a manufacturer of Raman imaging and correlative microscopy systems, has started shipping its Suite Five data acquisition, evaluation and processing software
Speakers from universities and industry will present their scientific achievements and talk about several aspects of modern Raman imaging
WITec introduced the next generation of its TrueSurface optical profilometer, which combines surface analysis and Raman spectral acquisition
WITec GmbH, industry leading manufacturer of scanning-probe nano-analytical microscopy systems, has opened a new office in Beijing
WITec has launched the alpha300 access micro-Raman system in conjunction with a thorough revision of the long-established alpha300 series
The WITec RISE microscopy mode for correlative Raman-SEM imaging is now compatible with the scanning electron microscope Zeiss Merlin. The new hybrid system was jointly developed by the two German microscope manufacturers
From nearly 100 submissions for the 2016 WITec Paper Awards, the jury selected the three best publications: they document how through correlative microscopy
