830nm laser excitation is a common wavelength chosen for Raman spectroscopy because it has great fluorescence suppression and good scattering efficiency.
-Raman-HR-TEC-830 Spectrometers: are our most popular Raman spectrometers and include an enhanced CCD array detector tuned for 830nm Raman with advanced detector lens assembly for ultra sensitivity at long exposure times.
-Raman-HR-TEC-X2-830 Spectrometers: offers 2-stage detector cooling for ultimate sensitivity and performance! Great for long exposures up to 8 minutes.
-Raman-SR spectrometers: are typically recommended for OEM and portable applications where the specific sample set is known and works well without detector cooling.
