The microscope

The FT-IR spectro-microscope is composed of the Thermo Nicolet Nexus infrared bench associated with an infrared Thermo Nicolet Continuum microscope. The latter has several features customised for various synchrotron applications: visualization of the sample even while acquiring data, infinity corrected optics which allows additional optical systems to be inserted such as visual and infrared polarizers, Nomarski differential interference contrast (DIC) optics, and UV fluorescence.
