alphaCART: WITec’s Mobile Confocal Raman System
The alphaCART is WITec’s mobile confocal Raman system, designed for applications that require bringing the lab directly to the sample. Its versatile Raman probe can be easily positioned in front of bulky, immovable, or precious objects that cannot be transported to a microscope or don’t fit under one. This system allows for on-site analysis without compromising the high-quality imaging and chemical analysis capabilities of traditional lab setups.
Features:
- Mobility and flexibility to perform Raman spectroscopy in challenging environments or with large or delicate samples.
- Non-invasive, high-resolution chemical imaging with confocal Raman technology, providing detailed material analysis.
- Easy integration into various workflows, especially in field-based applications or when dealing with large industrial materials.
The alphaCART is ideal for industries like semiconductors, materials science, life sciences, and art conservation, where the flexibility to analyze samples in place is crucial.
Applications:
- Material Analysis: On-site characterization of solids, liquids, and powders.
- Pharmaceuticals: Quality control, counterfeit detection, and process monitoring.
- Geosciences: Mineral and rock analysis in the field.
- Cultural Heritage: Non-invasive analysis of artworks and historical artifacts.
- Semiconductor Industry: Mobile analysis of wafers and thin films.
- Environmental Science: Detection of pollutants and analysis of soil or water samples.
