Oxford Instruments WITec Products & Reviews

RISE Microscopy is a novel correlative microscopy technique that combines SEM and confocal Raman Imaging and links ultra-structural surface properties to molecular compound information. RISE Microscopy combines an SEM and a confocal Raman microscope. The confocal Raman microscope is integrated into the vacuum chamber of the electron microscope. Non-destructive Raman and SEM measurements are consecutively performed at two diff…

Experience Raman Imaging from a new angle

ParticleScout can survey, classify, analyze, quantify and identify particles over even large sample areas. It enables measurements that proceed from a sample overview, to targeted investigations of particles in groups defined by the user, through a precise chemical characterization of individual particles. The results of the measurement are then presented in a report that provides a comprehensive description of the sample. Par…

Fully automated correlative Raman imaging microscope – capable of self-optimization and remote operation

 The RS combines all features of the alpha300 S and alpha300 R and many AFM operation modes.

The WITec alpha300 RA correlative microscope fuses the most powerful chemical and topographic imaging techniques into one fully-integrated instrument.  

The WITec alpha300 R leads the industry in speed, sensitivity and resolution. 

True Surface Microscopy - Confocal Microscopy Along with Large Area Optical Profiling WITec´s new True Surface Microscopy option (patent pending) allows confocal Raman imaging guided by surface topography. Confocal microscopy is often desirable due to its suppression of out-of-focus light but can be challenging when analyzing large or rough surfaces. In these cases, only those points that are in focus contribute to the image.…

WITec’s alpha300 S pushes the range of optical microscopy beyond the diffraction limit. 

Scanning Probe Microscope Series WITec alpha300 The WITec microscopy series features scanning probe as well as high resolution optical and Raman microscopy techniques in either a single instrument or combined system configurations for the highest flexibility throughout a wide range of microscopy applications. For example, it is possible to start with Confocal Raman Microscopy and upgrade later to Atomic Force Microscopy or vic…

Gain entrance to the Raman world today – Stay flexible for emerging challenges tomorrow

The new RayShield Coupler for the alpha300 and alpha500 microscope series allows the acquisition of Raman spectra at wavenumbers down to below 10 rel. cm-1. This high-transmission coupler system includes a specialized narrow-band filter set which is optimally aligned to detect lines extremely close to the Rayleigh line while maintaining ideal Rayleigh shielding. The RayShield Coupler is available for a variety of laser wavele…

WITec Suite is a powerful software for data acquisition, evaluation, and processing of even large data volumes and 3D scans. The software architecture enables an integrated and consolidated functionality incorporating the various WITec techniques and measurement modes such as Raman, AFM, SNOM, Raman-AFM, Raman-SEM, fluorescence and combinations thereof.The software provides both a clear and intuitive user interface combined w…

TrueMatch is a powerful and innovative software component for accessing and developing Raman spectral databases. With this technology, existing databases containing representative Raman spectra of common materials or substrates can be searched and used to identify sample components. It also allows users to create their own catalog of spectra pertinent to their research. It is fully integrated with the WITec Suite FIVE software…

alphaCART is WITec’s mobile, confocal Raman system for all applications that require bringing the lab to the sample.

The WITec alpha300 A atomic force microscope features exceptional capability along with an uncommon versatility.
