## Apollo M™ Raman Microspectrometer

Confocal Raman Spectroscopy of Microscopic Samples

The Apollo M™ Raman microspectrometer is crafted for both cutting-edge research and user-friendly operation, making it effortless to acquire Raman microspectra™ quickly. This allows you to concentrate on your sample measurements rather than the instrument’s functionality. Ideal for advanced research, routine analysis, quality control, and failure analysis, the Apollo M™ offers a seamless experience.

Optimized for Raman spectroscopy of microscopic samples, the Apollo M™ combines advanced optics, software, and hardware with a fixed confocal aperture, ensuring robust and reliable measurements. This makes it perfect for rapid, non-destructive analysis in diverse fields such as life sciences, materials science, chemistry, and physics.

The Apollo M™ Raman spectrometer boasts a modular and flexible design, easily integrable with an upright microscope for confocal Raman microspectroscopy. It offers solid-state spectrometers for enhanced speed and sensitivity, and scanning spectrometers for in-depth research. Additional features include kinetic Raman and photoluminescence microspectroscopy, high spatial resolution imaging, and Raman spectra mapping. These modules can be combined, providing unparalleled experimental flexibility.
