At IPS, we believe that Raman spectroscopy probes are
not a "one size fits all" product - they must be optimized
for specific applications and product designs to minimize losses and
optimize collection of the Raman signal. We custom manufacture a wide
variety of Raman probes to meet the needs of our customers demanding
applications. |

One of our most interesting Raman spectroscopy probes
is depicted to the right. It is an all fiber Raman probe that was
initially designed for in-vivo Raman Spectroscopy applications. The
probe proved to perform exceptionally well in immersion and bulk Raman
environments as well. The probe is unique in that there is no focusing
lens - so Raman can be collected over an exceptionally wide depth
of field. This eliminates the issues associated with precisely positioning
the sample under test and makes the probe very easy to use. The probe
is exceptionally small and lightweight as well. With diameters a between
1 and 2 mm and weighing in at only a few ounces, this novel probe
design is ideal for portable Raman spectroscopy applications. |

The custom Raman probe depicted to the left was designed
to interface with a synthetic aperture and utilizes unique optical
elements to dramatically decrease the optical losses associated
with traditional dichroic filter based Raman probes. |

| Ultra-miniaturization is the name
of the game for the Raman probe depicted to the right. This
design features a high power laser with integral Raman filter
that has been integrated right into the probe - producing an
extremely small footprint unit with high efficiency. |

Frequently, customers have unique applications
and need custom designs. The Raman probe depicted to the left
utilizes 8 fibers for both illumination and collection - allowing
the user to collect discrete Raman spectra from multiple locations
at the same time. Additionally, the probe was designed with
a detachable front end so that it may be either sterilized or
replaced when used in biomedical applications. |
