IRT-5000 FTIR MICROSCOPE SERIES

The IRT-5000 Series of FTIR microscopes provide new functions that dramatically improve infrared micro-spectroscopic analysis. The IRT-5000 microscope is used with either the FT/IR-4000 or FT/IR-6000 Series spectrometers, combining both micro and macro FTIR measurement, offering the most advanced microscopy and imaging systems. The systems are typically used in the mid-IR for materials identification and forensic analysis or in the near- and far-IR for more fundamental research.

System Description

The IRT-5000 FTIR Microscope includes an automatic carousel with a choice of cassegrains and refractive elements for observation and measurement. A mid-band MCT detector is included (with option for a high sensitivity peltier cooled DLaTGS detector). Up to two detectors can be installed to expand the spectral range of the microscope. The unique IQ Mapping function can be used for Transmission/Reflectance or ATR mapping without requirement to move the sample stage. An optional automatic XYZ sample stage with auto-focus can be used for sample or mapping analysis of a larger sample area. The addition of a linear array MCT detector provides very high speed mapping and imaging especially useful for dynamic experiments.

• Optional automatic XYZ stage

IRT-5200: FTIR Microscope

The IRT-5200 FTIR microscope includes a mid-band MCT detector (up to two detectors can be installed). IQ Mapping allows transmission/reflectance and ATR mapping experiments without moving the sample stage. An optional automatic XYZ stage provides auto-focus and mapping or imaging analysis of larger sample areas.
