Thermo Scientific DXR2

A high performance confocal Raman microscope used for quickly identifying and analyzing microparticles

Features of the Thermo Scientific DXR2

• Two laser sources (523 and 738 nm) to enable flexibility in analysis
• Motorized stage
• xy mapping and z-profiling of samples for in depth chemical analysis of solids, films, powders, and liquids
• Lateral resolution: approximately 1 μm
• Confocal optics enable depth profiling into the sample with 2 μm resolution
• Equipped with brightfield and darkfield illumination optics to quickly find areas of interest on the sample
