NTEGRA Spectra - AFM / CONFOCAL RAMAN & FLUORESCENCE / SNOM / TERS
Integration: The key to the new sciences
Change happens at interfaces and today’s most exciting changes in microscopy are happening where multiple technologies are interfaced together. NTEGRA Spectra is a prime example, uniting the full power of atomic force microscopy (AFM), confocal Raman and fluorescence microscopy and scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM) in one platform.
