The IRT Series of FTIR microscopes can be easily paired with either the FT/IR-4X or FT/IR-6000 Series spectrometers to create systems for materials identification and sample imaging.
The IRT-5000 and IRT-7000 microscopes are permanently aligned with an external optical port for automatic switching between measurement modes without optical alignment. All models can be used for transmission, reflectance and ATR sample measurement, with a choice of manual or automatic XYZ stages. Their instrument features are as below;
FT/IR-6700 + IRT-7200 FTIR microscope system
- Transmission and Reflection with a choice of magnifications
- ATR measurement with many prism options including ‘view through’ options
- High optical throughput using high quality reflective components
- Wide wavenumber range: 15,000 – 400 cm-1
- Excellent signal to noise ratio with a range of MCT and other detectors including electrically cooled DLaTGS.
- High spatial resolution
- Full vacuum option for sensitive measurement without noise from environmental gases
- IQ Mapping for in-situ mapping experiments for high speed or samples that can be easily damaged when the ATR is moved
- Rapid IR Imaging experiments for kinetics using Rapid Scan
- Spectra Manager Imaging Suite – a fast an powerful interface for mapping and imaging
- Exceptional visual observation quality with DIC and polarization options
- Dynamic Imaging with Rapid Scan and Step-Scan options
- Multivariate analysis PCA
The simple IRT-1000 microscope fits directly into the sample compartment and can be exchanged as easily as an ATR.
