Clairet Scientific Ltd What’s New in Raman? The New RXN2 1000 Raman Spectrometer Fluorescence Reduction Dispersive Raman The new Rxn2 1000 Raman analyzer from Kaiser Optical Systems has been designed to provide the fluorescence reduction and spectral performance of a laboratory FT-Raman instrument but with the additional capability for in situ lab and process measurements using fibre-coupled probes. Whilst the vast majority of candidates for Raman spectroscopic analysis are readily measured using visible laser excitation, a small proportion exhibit a strong fluorescence signal which swamps the Raman scatter.  The Rxn2 1000  analyzer uses near infrared excitation and Kaiser’s holographic technology in order to address these issues. To meet the challenges of deep-red excitation, Kaiser have developed optimized optics, gratings, probes, and detector technology. Many applications that couldn’t previously be monitored  by dispersive Raman are now accessible with the RXN2 1000. Applications • in situ reaction monitoring • Reaction pathway understanding • Yield optimization • API development • Early stage “dirty” crystallization • Biofuels/Fermentations • Polyurethanes • Heavy hydrocarbons • Colorants / Pigments 01604 494411 Spectroscopy from Lab to Line Raman
