The Continuµm is more powerful,
versatile and flexible than any microscope on the market. The
Continuµm provides fully automated operation, making it easy and
efficient to use. It offers infinity corrected optics, resulting in
brilliant visual images and superb signal-to-noise. Infinity
correction transmits light as a collimated beam, not the focused
beams used by other infrared microscopes. Using this beam greatly
minimizes spherical aberrations and provides a flat field of view at
the sample, giving a clear image.
The Continuµm allows users to
display and capture high resolution video images. It is 32-bit true
color compatible and has unlimited screen resolution for top-notch
image quality. A high-sensitivity detector and dual remote
aperturing makes the Continuµm an excellent tool for measuring
samples at the 10 nm dimension. In addition, it is the only infrared
microscope to offer DIC and fluorescence illumination options that provide
research optical microscope features for pharmaceutical, polymer,
biotechnological and semiconductor applications.
With Continuµm's TruView optics,
you can see the sample even while collecting IR data. This minimizes
sampling errors and provides faster sample analysis. The Continuµm's
patented Reflex aperture system provides consistent, accurate
results and high spectral purity using pre and post sample masking
from a single aperture. With this system you get ease-of-use and the
highest quality spectral data.
The Continuµm is the first fully
upgradeable IR microscope. Thermo Nicolet offers the most complete
line of sampling solutions for IR microspectroscopy, including a
grazing angle objective, a variety of ATR objectives and more.
Therefore you can upgrade your microscope as your sampling needs
change. Whether your challenges are smaller samples, transparent
features, surface defects, ultra-thin deposits or compositional
imaging, the Continuµm microscope provides the highest quality and
most advanced result.
