RM5 RAMAN MICROSCOPE
RM5 RAMAN MICROSCOPE
The RM5 is a compact powerhouse designed for every laboratory, from industry to academia. With advanced spectral imaging capabilities, intuitive operation, and precise confocal optics, the RM5 delivers unparalleled performance across diverse applications such as materials science, pharmaceuticals, and beyond.
Featuring a simple yet comprehensive design, the RM5 ensures ease of operation for users at any level of experience with Raman microscopy. Ramacle® software guides users through all measurement stages without limiting any Raman capabilities, resulting in the creation of high-quality, publication-ready data.
Configurable with up to three fully software-controlled internal lasers spanning 405 nm – 1064 nm, this system maximises experimental range while maintaining a compact footprint. Laser selection is complimented by a 5 position grating turret, where gratings are selected to perfectly match chosen lasers. This design not only saves laboratory space but also enhances ease of use, eliminating the need for users to manually activate lasers or exchange gratings.
The RM5 enhances user experience with key features: it includes an internal silicon standard for automatic wavelength calibration, ensuring precise spectral measurements without user intervention. The confocal microscope offers the most pinhole positions available, providing flexibility for optimal measurement conditions. When integrated with a motorised stage, the software generates both 2D and 3D Raman and photoluminescence maps, along with SurfMAP® for mapping uneven samples.
This versatility allows the RM5 to seamlessly integrate into any laboratory setting, accommodating a wide range of experiments across disciplines from biologists to chemists to physicists, making Raman microscopy accessible to all.
