Stereo-microspectrophotometer combines a stereomicroscope with a spectrophotometer to create a system unlike any other
Craic Technologies has released the new QDI QDS II stereo-microspectrophotometer at the American Society of Questioned Document Examiners conference.
This unique system is said to represent a dramatic leap in microspectroscopy by combining a stereomicroscope with a spectrophotometer. Integrating these two components has led to a system unlike any other.
The QDS II features zoomable optics, a broad spectral range, and high resolution digital imaging.
The system is simple to use and can acquire transmission, reflectance, and fluorescence microspectra.
"Craic has developed the technologies used in the QDS II so that samples with variable backgrounds may be analyzed with high fidelity and reproducibility" says Paul Martin, president.
"With such features as zoomable optics, many different scientific fields and samples can now be studied in great detail at the micro level".
While the QDS II was initially designed for microspectral analysis of inks and papers, Craic has discovered many other uses.
These include, but are not limited to, geological and petrographic spectral analysis, semiconductor analysis, LCD quality control, and many more.
