Raman Spectrometer with Photomultiplier
Housed in Science building, basement, room 39
It is a double pass spectrometer with a holographic grating with 1800 lines/mm, with a resolution of less than a wave number. An attached optical microscope enables one to study Raman Spectra various chemicals. Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) can also be done with this spectrometer.
Raman Spectrometer, Model# HR 320
Housed in Science building, basement, room 39
This is a spectrometer with a grating of 1200 lines/mm. A separate optical microscope enables one to study Raman Spectra of various chemicals. Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) can also be performed with this spectrometer.
Zygo Interferometer
