Setup and Configuration
  • TrueCal executes pre-configured calibration procedures.
  • Compliant with laser safety standards.
  • The AutoBeam Concept enables automated and motorized beam path alignment, including:
  1. Motorized 6-position objective turret: selects objective lenses and compensates for deviations.
  2. Motorized illumination selector: switches between all microscope illumination options.
  3. Motorized laser coupler: supports up to 6 laser wavelengths from UV to NIR.
  4. AutoBeam coupler: automatically optimizes signal intensity and resolution, and selects the appropriate spectrometer.
  5. Motorized calibration source: enables fast, automatic spectrometer calibration at multiple points across the entire spectral range.
  6. Motorized Köhler illumination aperture: supports focusing and optimizes contrast and uniformity.
  7. Motorized polarization modules: excitation polarizer and detection analyzer with fully automated rotation.
Raman Imaging
  • TruePower sets and determines absolute laser power with an accuracy of <0.1 mW.
  • The system automatically repositions samples via motorized scanning stages and piezo drives.
  • Focus Stabilization actively finds and maintains focus throughout the measurement.
  • The motorized objective turret includes precise compensation features and is compatible with AFM/SNOM objectives.
  • The EasyLink handheld controller enables intuitive device operation.
Data Processing and Visualization
  • Suite SIX software guides users through Raman spectral processing, from background subtraction to image generation.
  • TrueComponent Analysis automatically identifies sample components within an image and distinguishes their individual spectra.
  • TrueMatch software identifies molecules by comparing measured spectra with existing databases.
