The combined inVia Raman and IlluminatIR™ FT-IR spectrometer

The IlluminatIR™ is a modular FT-IR spectrometer from SensIR Technologies, which may be easily mounted beneath the eyepieces of the research grade, infinity corrected, microscope of Renishaw™s inVia instrument (Fig. 1). This enables users to retain full use of the range of optical techniques available with the Leica™ DMLM microscope.

结论：

The IlluminatIR™/inVia combination offers users confocal Raman microscopy and infrared microscopy in a single instrument. The IlluminatIR™ module can be fitted to Renishaw’s Raman microscopes at the time of purchase, or retrofitted in the field. Eliminating the need to have two separate instruments saves users both space and money, and saves them time by allowing both techniques to be performed on just one instrument.
