Bruker AXS, Inc., Madison, WI; www.bruker-axs.com Lasers for Raman spectroscopy CW DPSS lasers in the visible wavelengths from Cobolt are available in 355, 457, 473, 491, 515, 561, and 594 nm at up to 300 mW. The lasers’ single-longitudinal mode operation reportedly provides low noise, wavelength stability, and spectral purity. They are mounted in a hermetically sealed package. Cobolt, Stockholm, Sweden; www.cobolt.se Calibration standards Hellma’s calibration standards are designed for checking spectrophotometers according to national and international standards. The liquid filters can be used for performance verification of UV–vis spectrophotometers in categories such as spectral resolution, wavelength accuracy, photometric accuracy, and stray light. The filters reportedly are made with high purity solutions sealed in Suprasil quartz cells with a 10-mm light path. Solid filters are also available. Hellma USA, Inc., Plainview, NY; www.hellmausa.com Thin-film measurement tool HORIBA’s Auto SE thinfilm measurement tool allows automatic analysis of thin films at the push of a button. According to the company, analysis requires a few seconds and the instrument provides a report of film thicknesses, optical constants, surface roughness, and nonhomogeneities. Features include an automatic XYZ stage, confocal imaging of the measurement site, and automatic selection of spot sizes. HORIBA Scientific, Edison, NJ; www.autose.org Fiber-optic sample compartment Quantum Northwest’s qpod sample compartment provides temperature control for fiber-optic spectroscopy. A cuvette holder in the center provides Peltier-based temperature control from 30 °C to 105 °C. The holder has magnetic stirring and a dry gas purge. Fiber-optic cables are attached to fused-silica lens systems and are inserted from the sides. Kits are available for absorbance, fluorescence, and multipurpose for both. Quantum Northwest, Inc., Shoreline, WA; www.qnw.com Raman spectrometer The innoRAM high-resolution Raman spectrometer system from B&W Tek is designed for portable use with an integrated touch-screen computer and spectral resolution of 2 cm 1. The instrument’s CleanLaze laser and Raman probe reportedly provide near-excitation cut-on at 65 cm 1. B&W Tek, Inc., Newark, DE; www.bwtek.com Holographic polarizer Specac’s holographic polarizers are available on barium fluoride, calcium fluoride, KRS-5, and zinc selenide substrates and are manufactured at 2500 lines/mm. The polarizers are available in standard sizes of 25 mm or 50 mm diameter. Applications include the polarization of radiation for unpolarized sources, attenuation of radiation from polarized sources, infrared spectroscopy of materials, and NIR and mid-IR thermal imaging. Specac, Inc., Woodstock, GA; www.specac.com Portable Raman system PerkinElmer’s Raman IdentiCheck portable Raman system is designed to combine the convenience of a portable, hand-triggered probe system with the performance of a laboratory instrument. The system comprises an F2 Raman echelle spectrograph; an open electrode 1024 × 256 pixel CCD; a 785-nm, 300-mW laser that provides user-adjustable power between 100 mW and 10 mW at sample; kinematically mounted zero-alignment optics; and software for instrument control and Raman data acquisition and processing. Applications include forensic analysis, homeland security, QA/QC analysis, in-situ conservation analysis, and laboratory or in-field geological analysis.
