Spectral Surface Mapping Software for Microspectrophotometers

CRAIC Technologies offers Spectral Surface Mapping (S2M) capabilities for its UV-visible-NIR microspectrophotometers. S2M gives CRAIC microspectrometer users the ability to map the spectral responses across of surfaces of their samples point-by-point. With microscopic spatial resolution, surface profiles can be created using UV-visible-NIR transmission, absorbance, emission, fluorescence and polarization microspectral data. S2M can even create maps from Raman microspectral data from the CRAIC Apollo Raman microspectrometer. CRAIC microspectrometers can now create highly detailed spectral maps with micron scale resolution rapidly and automatically.

Spectral Surface Mapping is a plug-in software module used with CRAIC Technologies Lambdafire microspectrometer software. When employed with CRAIC Technologies microspectrometers with programmable stages, S2M allows a user to automatically take spectral measurements with user-defined mapping patterns that reach to the movement limits of the stage itself. With the ability to measure up to a million points, high definition maps of the spectral response of the surface of a sample may be generated. And because of the flexibility and power of the software, the maps may be from transmission, absorbance, reflectance, fluorescence, emission and even polarization data. Raman spectral responses may even be collected and mapped when used with CRAIC Technologies Apollo Raman microspectrometers. S2M gives even more power to the scientist and engineer to study the entire surface of their samples by several different methods and in the highest level of detail.
