Horiba LabRAM HR Evolution Raman Spectrometer
Instrument/ServiceType:
Confocal Raman Spectrometer
Make/ Model:
Horiba LabRAM HR Evolution
Instrument Description:
Raman spectroscopy is a fast, simple technique that characterized the molecular structure of diverse materials spanning minerals (thin sections & powders), biological samples, fluids, dissolved gases, and much more. Our system is optimized for fast hyperspectral Raman imaging of sample surfaces (areas up to a few square millimeters) at spatial resolutions down to about 1 micron. We are equipped with 532 nm and 785 nm lasers as well as various high- and low-resolution diffraction gratings. Confocal optics allow for depth profiling, thin layer characterization, and fluid inclusion characterization. Additional laboratory resources include a Zeiss stereomicroscope, sample preparation area, and powerful data processing workstation computer with advanced multivariate statistical analysis and image processing capabilities.
