What do I do if my laser burns my samples?
There are a few options if your laser is burning your samples. First, try to lower the power on your laser. If this does not work you can ask your Application Scientist for information on using an in-line attenuator to reduce the laser power to your sample.What are chemicals commonly detected with SERS?
Some of the common chemicals detected with SERS are as follows: Agriculture: – Pesticide detection – Food contamination testing Homeland security & Law enforcement: – Trace explosives detection – Trace detection of narcotics such as cocaine...If I don’t have interchangeable slits can I upgrade my spectrometer to have them?
High Resolution (-HR) spectrometers manufactured after Jan 1, 2017 should be able to be upgraded with interchangeable slits (some exceptions may apply). If you purchase a Raman-HR-TEC now you can upgrade it to have interchangeable slits at any time.If my current Raman spectrometer does not have TEC-X2 can I upgrade it?
High Resolution (-HR) spectrometers manufactured after Jan 1, 2017 should be able to be upgraded to TEC-X2 (some exceptions may apply). If you purchase a Raman-HR-TEC now you can upgrade it to a TEC-X2 in the future.Do I need to wear laser safety goggles?
Yes! The lasers used in our systems are Class IV lasers which can cause damage to your eyes. StellarNet also suggests you have a Laser Safety Officer review your set-up to make sure it is as safe as possible.
