Andor’s range of detectors offer a wide range of sensitivity, time-resolution and sensor formats to best suit specific experimental conditions from UV to SWIR, nanosecond to hours time resolution, high photon flux to single photon with super dynamic range
Raman Spectroscopy
Raman is a molecular spectroscopy technique that can provides chemical and structural fingerprint information for a wide range of samples, including for example nanomaterials, polymers, powders, liquids or cells/tissues. Key Raman techniques include:
Spontaneous and stimulated
Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS)
Surface Offset Raman Spectroscopy (SORS)
Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (TERS)
Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering (CARS)
Luminescence
Luminescence spectroscopy is used for a large variety of applications including for example the study of metal complexes, organic LEDs (OLEDs), quantum dots, cell dynamics, stand-off detection of chemical compounds (e.g. explosives) or scintillators properties measurement. Key techniques include:
Fluorescence
Photoluminescence
Cathodoluminescence
Chemiluminescence
