This product is easy to use and allows us to obtain data of good reproducibility and spectra of good quality (high signal to noise ratio). So I recommend it for this reason but we had frequently some technical problems that could not always been resolved rapidly and easily.

Application Area:

FTIR microscope

This high-end microscope offers great spectral quality, signal to noise, and software that is excellent at removing atmospheric noise. The spectral search methods include peak searching which works well. The digital imaging capabilities make it easy to interpret, understand, and communicate results. Since it is high-end and complex, it is not that easy or simple to use, but once learned, it is not that difficult. The company support is fast, they understand the problems, and offer very clear solutions. The software could be made easier and more straight forward. As for value for money, I was not involved in the specification or purchase.

The HYPERION II microscope combines FT-IR and infrared laser imaging (ILIM) microscopy in a single instrument for the first time. It offers all three measurement modes: transmission, reflection, and ATR.

Users have the unique opportunity to use an IR microscope that offers both the reliability and precision of FT-IR and the tremendous speed advantage of IR laser imaging, all in one.

FEATURES:

  • Selection of detectors for µ-FT-IR: Broad-, mid, narrow-band LN2-MCTs, thermoelectrically cooled (TE) MCT
  • Focal-plane array detector for infrared imaging (64 x 64 or 128 x 128 pixel)
  • Optional QCL implementation by Laser Infrared Imaging Module (ILIM, laser class 1)
  • Objective lens selection: 3.5x/15x/36x IR, 20x ATR, 15x GIR, 4x/40x VIS
  • High imaging speeds: 0.1 mm2 per second (FPA, full-spectrum); 6.4 mm2 per second (ILIM, single wavenumber)
  • Selection of apertures: manual knife-edge, automated knife-edge aperture wheel. Metal apertures for NIR
  • Selection of visual/optical tools: darkfield illumination, fluorescence illumination, VIS polarizers, IR polarizers, etc.
  • Spectral range extension – from Near-Infrared (NIR) to Far-Infrared (FIR)
  • Selection of accessories and sample stages: macro IR imaging accessory, cooling/heating stage, sample compartment, etc.
