Training required to use this instrument:
General Lab Safety Training (EHS 2555)

Specifications
Reflection Raman microscopy enables chemical identification of elements and compounds with a spatial resolution of ~1 µm. Raman shifts within 150 cm-¹ of the excitation frequency can be measured at excitation wavelengths of either 488 nm or 785 nm with a spectral resolution of ~1 cm-¹.
Spatial maps of Raman intensity over areas as large as several square cm can be made using an automated scan stage.
Specialized applications: a) polarized Raman; b) photoluminescence; c) simultaneous Raman/AFM.
Equipment
Renishaw InVia microRaman system. Objectives: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x (N.A. 0.75 for Raman imaging), 50x (N.A. 0.45 for Raman imaging, long-working distance).
