Whilst the RMS1000 can be configured with a wide range of lasers, techniques, detectors and gratings as standard, sometimes that simply isn’t enough! Recently, we engineered a system that fully leverages its capabilities to their fullest extent. Equipped with two spectrographs to enhance resolution and functionality, the RMS1000 facilitates numerous techniques thanks to its extensive array of lasers and detectors. Internally, this system integrates 4 CW diode lasers for Raman and photoluminescence (PL) measurements. In response to the customer’s existing EI pulsed lasers (EPL, HPL, and VPL series), the microscope was modified to seamlessly integrate filter cubes. This adjustment relieves pressure on the six-position filter turret, enabling unrestricted use of EPL/HPL/VPL lasers, and allowing additional external lasers to be coupled. The system includes two IR lasers for upconversion measurements, alongside a Ti:Sapphire laser coupled into the external port, offering shared compatibility with their FLS1000, shown in the image below. To accommodate these diverse laser sources, the instrument houses 4 detectors: EMCCD, InGaAs, PMT, and NIR-PMT. Despite its complexity, Ramacle software efficiently manages and operates all internal components, ensuring user-friendly control while expanding capabilities to support a wide range of techniques—a true Multimodal RMS1000! Techniques: Raman, PL, FLIM, Upconversion
