Check out the data collected at 300ms, 10x faster than the standard Raman Spectrometer!
The Quasar Spectrometer comes with our new high throughput f/2 optical design for Raman spectroscopy with increased photon collection over 10x! This translates into taking spectroscopic measurements 10x faster, reducing noise, and increasing detection limits astronomically.
Quasar-785 Spectrometers are our highest throughput 785nm Raman spectrometers and include an enhanced CCD array detector tuned for 785nm Raman with advanced detector lens assembly for sensitivity at long exposure times.
Quasar-785-TEC-X2 Spectrometers offer 2-stage detector cooling for ultimate sensitivity and performance! Great for long exposures up to 8 minutes.
Quasar-785-UltraCool Upgrade your Quasar with a deep-cooled HYPER-Nova detector to include a low dark current, vacuum-sealed, and deep-cooled CCD array detector.
Quasar-532 Spectrometers are our highest throughput 532nm Raman spectrometers and include an enhanced CCD array detector tuned for 532nm Raman with advanced detector lens assembly for sensitivity at long exposure times.
Quasar-532-TEC-X2 Spectrometers offer 2-stage detector cooling for ultimate sensitivity and performance! Great for long exposures up to 8 minutes.
Quasar-532-UltraCool upgrade your Quasar with a deep-cooled HYPER-Nova detector to include a low dark current, vacuum sealed, and deep-cooled CCD array detector.
