Raman Spectroscopy: Easy as 1, 2, 3!
Introduction
Raman spectroscopy is used in R&D, industrial process monitoring, QC, and routine identification of illicit drugs, pharmaceuticals, and hazardous materials.
A Raman analyzer consists of three basic components:
1. Laser
2. Detector (spectrometer)
3. Sample interface (probe)
Our DIY kits give you the flexibility to configure a Raman system that will be optimal for your specific application.
Select Your System
We offer three standard wavelengths for our DIY Raman systems, with custom wavelengths available upon request.

DIY 532nm
A 532-nanometer laser provides the highest energy to bombard the sample structure, leading to higher fluorescence and making it ideal for inorganic materials.

DIY 785nm
A 785-nanometer laser provides an excellent compromise between signal strength, reduced fluorescence, and spectral coverage, making it the most commonly used wavelength for dispersive Raman measurements.

DIY 1064nm
A 1064-nanometer laser performs with the least fluorescence but also requires a longer signal acquisition time and has a higher probability of heating and damaging a sample. Best choice for dark-colored materials such as natural products, dyes, oils, and polymers.
