It a great instrument for everyday use, easy to use and an affordable price.
Application Area: Analyze solid, liquid, powders, and thin films
"It is very easy to use, portable, nice appearance, and is robust to manage. It doesn't require very specialized training. The price is very affordable for small budget centers, allows us to do a lot of things with the 35 mW, 532 nm laser. In contrast, the number of features that are possible to modify, let's say, the measuring range, is small. It is possible to modify the exposition time, the number of accumulations, and the laser power. We bought the microscope with 20X and 50X objectives. It can measure using the microscope or using the fiber/trigger either directly or with the liquid accessory. The fiber fits in a connector to the microscope, but I find the connection is not very robust, as the fiber and trigger are heavy and the insertion is short, so there is pulling force where the trigger connects to the microscope; I am sure this can be improved. The LED illumination for positioning is useful but for dark samples is hard to see. For powders and liquids, we are obtaining nice and reproducible results. For thin films, we are struggling a lot to get a signal, but this is a common issue in other Raman systems. About post-sale service, the representatives in Mexico are fast to answer, although we asked something about an experimental detail that was sent to the manufacturer some days ago and yet no answer. Nevertheless, it is a great instrument, we would like to get the 785 nm version that also fits in the microscope."
