Horiba Scientific to showcase microspectrometer, AR multilayer coating technology, and miniature CCD spectrometers at SPIE Photonics West 2014
The MicOS microspectrometer combines a microscope head and a triple-gratings imaging spectrometer that can accommodate up to 3 different detectors. The system operates over 200 to 1600 nm, allowing characterization of materials such as semiconductor and biological samples. An embedded digital imaging camera enables real-time viewing of a sample. Applications include photoluminescence, electroluminescence, and photoreflectance measurements at the microscopic level.
The QExtraTechnology antireflective multilayer coating is said to improve quantum efficiency (QE) from ultraviolet (UV) to near-infrared (NIR) while suppressing undesirable etaloning effects in basic back-illuminated, deep-depleted cameras. Applications include luminescence, fluorescence, and Raman spectroscopy measurements.
