Expert insights

Thibault Brulé and Jocelyne Marciano
Jocelyne Marciano, Elemental Analysis Application Scientist and Thibault Brulé, Raman Application Scientist at HORIBA.

Combining elemental and molecular characterization enables better and faster research for many real-world applications. The pharmaceutical, environmental, and even geochemical sector can benefit from this complementarity of techniques. Micro-XRF provides elemental distribution over a large area without any compromise on sample preparation, while Raman microscopy can depict molecular heterogeneity under the same conditions.

In this webinar, Thibault Brulé and Jocelyne Marciano from HORIBA Scientific will demonstrate how the combination of micro-XRF and Raman microscopy can be used to fully characterize the organic and inorganic layout of samples like tablets, rocks or pollutant particles on filters.

Fluorescence SpectroscopyFluorometers and spectrofluorometers (also called fluorescence spectrometers) are used to measure the intensity and wavelength of fluorescent light emitted from a sample after excitation by illumination. Spectrofluorometers utilize monochromators to select the desired wavelengths, whereas filter fluorometers employ a set of filters. Spectrofluorometers for measuring steady-state fluorescence and lifetime fluorescence (or time-resolved fluorescence) are available, as well as fluorescence microscopes and microplate readers.

Explore a range of Raman spectrometers, including handheld/portable Raman spectrometers for QC/QA labs and in situ spectrometers for processes. Conduct Raman imaging for microanalysis of mixed samples using a Raman microscope. Raman spectrographs are also available.

X-Ray diffractometers (XRD) are superior instruments in elucidating the dimensional atomic structure of crystalline materials, including powders, thin films and single crystals. For large unit cells or ordered macromolecules, consider small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). X-ray spectroscopic techniques include X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), both providing simple and accurate methods for determining the elemental composition of a material. Energy dispersive (EDXRF) and wavelength dispersive (WDXRF) XRF spectrometers are available, as well as handheld/portable devices. High-resolution, 3D microstructure characterization of materials can be achieved with X-ray microscopes combining sub-micron resolution imaging with 3D computed tomography. Find the best XRD and XRF spectrometers in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.X-Ray FluorescenceX-ray fluorescence (XRF) is an analytical technique used to determine the elemental composition of materials. It is widely used in geology, materials science, and environmental testing for detecting heavy metals and other elements.
