IMA Global hyperspectral microscope

IMA is a hyperspectral global microscope delivering spectral and spatial information in the VIS, NIR and/or SWIR spectral ranges (400 nm - 1620 nm).

This system produces large maps (up to 1 mm x 1 mm and even more) of photoluminescence, fluorescence and electroluminescence, reflectance, and transmittance. Based on high throughput global-imaging filters, IMA is faster and more efficient than standard point-by-point or line-scan based systems. IMA is designed for both life sciences and materials science

Two models of the IMA can be offered:

  • IMA VIS that operates over 400-1000nm with <2nm spectral resolution (FWHM) and with sub nm resolution. Detection is via CCD, EMCCD or sCMOS camera
  • IMA SWIR that operates over 900-1620 nm with <4nm spectral resolution and with sub nm resolution. Detection is via Photon etc. InGaAs camera (ZephIR™ 1.7 or Alizé™ 1.7)

IMA Applications Overview

  • Perform complex material analyses such as solar cell characterization and semiconductor quality control.
  • Study IR markers in complex environments including live cells and tissue.
  • Retrieve darkfield images and obtain a contrast of transparent and unstained samples such as polymers, crystals or live cells.

Features

  • Quick mapping
  • High spatial and spectral resolution
  • Complete system (source, microscope, camera, filter, software)
  • Straight or inverted microscope
  • Non-destructive analysis
  • Custom specifications available
  • Darkfield and electroluminescence imaging option
