Product news
Rigaku Raman Technologies has announced the release of their first dual wavelength handheld Raman analyzer at Pittcon 2012.
Built on the stabilized platform of the Xantus-1, the Xantus-2 combines the technology of their 785nm and their 1064nm Raman spectrometers giving two instruments in one.
The Xantus-2 was designed specifically to over-come the intrinsic fluorescence issues found in many materials. The two wavelengths offer an even more extensive array of materials analysis.
Fast and accurate chemical identification ideal for:
• Narcotics & illicit street drugs
• Explosives & chemical warfare
• In-line pharmaceutical processing
• Authentication & anti-counterfeiting
• Hazardous materials & chemical spills
• Incoming raw material ID.

Raman SpectroscopyRaman spectroscopy is used to discern the vibrational and rotational states of molecules and hence the chemical composition of a sample by measuring the inelastic scattering of monochromatic light. 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.
