Hand-held/stand-off deep-UV Raman and fluorescence detector
Portable and stand-off instruments combining deep-UV Raman and fluorescence for trace and bulk detection of chemicals, biological materials and explosives, operable in daylight conditions.
Laboratory deep-UV Raman/fluorescence spectrometer
Laboratory spectrometer system for deep-UV Raman and photoluminescence measurements used for material characterization and research.
Chemical printer/mapper
Instrumentation for chemical printing and mapping applications (chemical deposition and spatially resolved mapping).
Deep-UV laser modules and sources
Deep-UV laser modules for integration into spectroscopy systems and flight hardware.
FX
The FX has a working distance of 100mm and a +-5mm depth of focus, making it suitable for a wide range of in process surface contamination inspections and measurements.
FX DUV Fluorescence Detector
The FX DUV Fluorescence Detector is a small size, light weight, lower power system focused on detection and classification of ultra-trace concentration of organic contaminants on surfaces such as high-performance optical components, semiconductors and other manufactured surfaces susceptible to ultra-trace levels of contamination.
