Obtain accurate and reproducible results every time
With the DXR3 family of Raman instruments, Raman expertise isn't necessary to get results and understand their meaning. These instruments are designed for simple operation to accommodate researchers of all skill levels. Users can preview data collection before acquisition—ensuring they obtain the intended result every time. They can also automate alignment and calibration, making sure they obtain accurate and reliable system performance.
Rapidly collect and analyze data without special expertise
Quick data collection without the need for Raman expertise enables users to complete their experiments more quickly. Minimal sample preparation is required, while an intuitive workflow for demanding applications helps users maximize sample throughput. Intuitive imaging software enables researchers to quickly visualize and understand data and image—enabling them to easily substantiate their grant proposals, while publishing their results faster.
Enhance inter-departmental research
DXR3 family of Raman instruments can be combined with complementary techniques such as Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and infrared microscopy to extend the range of unknown materials users can identify. These flexible and versatile instruments can be used by various departmental users for a wide range of explorations—from materials engineering to life science and geology to pharmaceuticals--increasing the value of your departmental research dollar.
The University of Wisconsin-Madison has both a DXR3 Raman Microscope and DXR3xi Raman Imaging Microscope available in two multi-user laboratories serving the entire university population. Laboratory users are from across university departments including pharmacy, geology, materials science, life sciences, and chemistry.
