Raman Microprobe
Raman Microprobe
The Renishaw inVia Raman Microprobe is used to provide highly detailed
characterization of astromaterials, supporting a wide range of investigations
that include mineralogy, crystallinity, fluid inclusions, organic, and
inorganic geochemistry.
The instrument is capable of conducting analysis/excitation at three wavelengths:
a He-Ne Laser at 632.8 nm, a Laser Diode at 784.8 nm, and an Argon laser at 514 nm.
This system also provides full automation for changing filters and gratings. The
Raman Microprobe is equipped with a confocal Leica microscope and a motorized XYZ
stage with sample enclosure which eliminates ambient light.
