EAGLE RAMAN-S

Highly Sensitive, Deeply Cooled Spectrometer from Ibsen Photonics

EAGLE Raman-S Spectrometer – For High Performance Raman Spectroscopy

The EAGLE Raman-S is a robust, athermal, industrial grade camera-based spectrometer especially well-suited
for Raman spectroscopy. With a designed numerical aperture of up to 0.3 (f-number 1.6), high diffraction
efficiency transmission grating and deeply cooled Andor’s iVac 316 camera, the Eagle Raman-S is an ideal solution
for demanding Raman spectroscopy applications requiring the highest levels of resolution and sensitivity.

provides a high even diffraction efficiency, as shown by the absolute diffraction efficiency graph displayed
above. Every grating used in the EAGLE Raman-S spectrometer platform is a master grating fabricated at Ibsen
Photonics’ clean-room facility in Denmark.
Additionally, the transmission grating ensures excellent wavelength stability due to the inherent
self-corrective nature of transmission gratings, compensating for misalignment, shock, or vibrations that
the spectrometer may experience.
