Introduction

.

FLEX™ from CRAIC is a full-featured yet flexibly configured instrument that incorporates UV-visible-NIR optics, spectrophotometers digital imaging, and software...all tied together with our Lightswitch by CRAIC™ optical multiplexer. With our Lightswitch by CRAIC™ technology, FLEX™ retains the ease-of-use for which CRAIC instruments are known, while being capable of everything from UV-visible-NIR microspectroscopy, high resolution microscopic imaging, refractive index measurements and more.

With an attractive price-entry point, the FLEX™ microspectrophotometer utilizes tested technologies to allow you to measure UV-visible-NIR range transmission, absorbance, reflectance, emission and fluorescence spectra of microscopic sample areas.  And while microspectra™ are being acquired, the sample may be simultaneously imaged with a high-resolution color digital imaging system or through eyepieces.  Additional features may also include measuring the refractive index of microscopic samples as well as microcolorimetry and microspot thin film thickness measurements.

The FLEX™ microspectrophotometer is built to yield superior quality images and spectra for an attractive price.

UV-vis-NIR Microspectroscopy

Cost effective microspectroscopy

Microspectroscopy that features a spectral range from the UV through the visible and into the near infrared.  Simultaneous and direct imaging of both the sampling aperture and the sample makes for fast, accurate measurements.  The FLEX™ gives you the ability to measure transmission, reflectance and fluorescence spectra of even sub-micron samples.

CRAIC Technologies is also the only recognized source for NIST traceable microspectrometer standards.

Raman Microspectroscopy

Flexible Raman Microspectroscopy

When fitted with the CRAIC Apollo™ Raman spectrometer module, the FLEX™ is capable of Raman, resonance Raman and other types of measurements of microscopic samples. Modules include lasers, Raman spectrometers and the interface optics that allow you to collect high quality Raman spectra of your samples. Raman spectrum of Tylenol with CRAIC Apollo™

Fluorescence

High sensitivity microfluorometry & imaging

The FLEX™ can be configured for fluorescence and luminescence spectra and images of microscopic samples.  With excitation ranging from the deep UV to the near infrared and the ability to measure the emission in the same range, the FLEX™ is a powerful tool for microfluorometry for materials sciences, biology, geology and more.  Emission spectra of RGB pixels on microdisplay

UV-vis-NIR Microimaging

Superior image quality from the UV to the NIR

The FLEX™ includes a  UV-visible-NIR microscope featuring high resolution digital imaging for color, UV and the NIR regions.  With its sophisticated imaging software, FLEX™ gives you the ability for both real time and image capture of samples by transmission, reflectance, polarization and fluorescence.
