Renishaw’s SEM-Raman system provides truly co-located analysis Renishaw’s SEM-Raman system is unique. You can simultaneously acquire both SEM (scanning electron microscope) and Raman data from the same area on the sample. You do not have to transfer the sample to a different measurement location or instrument; this ensures rapid truly correlative analysis. You will avoid the sample registration issues that can occur when moving samples between measurement locations.

Electron imaging and Raman spectroscopy are established techniques for viewing and analysing carbon nanotubes. Performing these two techniques usually requires the sample being transferred between a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a Raman spectrometer. This application note illustrates the advantages of Renishaw’s structural and chemical analyser (SCA) for simultaneous secondary electron imaging and Raman spectroscopy of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs).

Combine the power of inVia™ with nanoindentation measurements and directly correlate mechanical and tribological properties with chemical information such as crystallinity, polymorphism, phase and stress/strain. Raman spectroscopy is a powerful technique commonly used to study the composition, uniformity, strain, stress and disorder of materials. However, it does not directly characterise physical, mechanical and tribological properties. Renishaw and Hysitron have combined an inVia confocal Raman microscope with a TI 950 TriboIndenter, producing a system with the capability to directly correlate mechanical property measurements with comprehensive chemical analyses, in situ.
