New spectrometers provide powerful performance and upgradeability to meet needs of organic chemistry, pharmaceutical, food and agricultural, polymer, and academic and research markets
Thermo Electron announces the launch of its Nicolet FT-IR spectrometer series.
Building on many of the innovations in FT-IR spectroscopy introduced by the Nicolet Nexus, Thermo unveils the Nicolet 4700, the Nicolet 6700, and Nicolet 8700, a new line of FT-IR spectrometers for both routine analysis and advanced research.
These new spectrometers are said to provide powerful performance, intuitive solutions, advanced application capabilities, and full upgradeability to meet the existing and future needs of the organic chemistry, pharmaceutical, food and agricultural, polymer, and academic and research markets.
The Nicolet FT-IR spectrometer series incorporates Thermo's new ETC EverGlo IR source.
This innovative technology truly revolutionises source design by providing a stabilised signal that adds significantly longer source lifetime, and enables a new Turbo Mode for the analysis of previously intractable IR samples. In addition, gold-coated optics and a redesigned optical layout provide substantially greater signal throughput.
Sharing a common optics and electronics platform, the Nicolet FT-IR spectrometer series allows analysts to progress from routine analytical capabilities to fully loaded advanced research systems as their needs grow.
Upgrade capabilities range from the ability to add multiple beamsplitters for expanded spectral range to step-scan capabilities for advanced applications.
External experiment options add capabilities for IR microscopy and imaging, FT-Raman, GC-IR, polarisation modulation, thermogravimetric analysis, and many other techniques and analyses.
The Nicolet FT-IR spectrometer series provides several ergonomic and productivity features designed to save time and motion in today's busy lab, including integrated scan buttons and high-speed USB 2.0 data interfacing.
These spectrometers can be configured for multiple spectral ranges, with the option of gold-coated or aluminum mirrors.
New automated options such as filter wheels, beam attenuators, and polarizers can be incorporated with Smart Accessories and Omnic 7.0 software to create powerful FT-IR solutions.
Research-grade Nicolet FT-IR spectrometers offer a full range of step-scan operation modes for time-resolved, phase-resolved, and space-resolved experiments.
Dual-channel continuous-scan mode provides polarisation modulation/demodulation experiments, as well as conventional single-channel continuous-scan operation for routine applications.
Step-scan capabilities enable advanced applications such as dynamic polymer rheology and phase modulation photoacoustic spectral depth profiling.
