VISTA ONE <\/strong><\/h1>\n

nano-IR Microscope and Spectrometer
\nAFM-IR \/ PiFM\u00a0 \/ PiF-IR \/ s-SNOM \/ Confocal Raman and custom experiments<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The original PiF microscope for nano\u2011IR chemical analysis. Vista One makes nanoscale chemical maps and point spectra with more detail than FTIR or nano-FTIR.<\/p>\n

Characterize at the highest resolution<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Sub-10 nm PiF\u2011IR spectroscopy<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • 1 wavenumber spectral resolution with a widely tunable laser for nano-IR experiments<\/li>\n
  • Mono-layer molecular sensitivity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Sub-10 nm PiFM chemical mapping<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Mono-layer molecular sensitivity<\/li>\n
    • Organic and inorganic materials<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

       <\/p>\n

      Proper optics integration<\/strong><\/h2>\n

      Built to handle any light<\/strong><\/p>\n

      A 3D-actuated parabolic mirror focuses excitation light onto the side of the tip no matter what wavelength of light is used.<\/p>\n

      Fast cantilever alignment<\/strong><\/p>\n

      Our cantilever alignment chip ensures that optical alignments are maintained for both the AFM feedback and near-field lasers during cantilever changes.<\/p>\n

      \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

      Complete results immediately<\/strong><\/h2>\n

      Designed for high throughput measurement<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      • Tunable IR lasers can sweep a full PiF\u2011IR spectrum in as little as 100 ms.<\/li>\n
      • Use existing FTIR spectra to identify materials.<\/li>\n
      • Fixed-wavelength PiFM images can be acquired in minutes with a range of up to 80 \u00b5m in X and Y.<\/li>\n
      • Optical alignments are maintained even when changing samples.<\/li>\n
      • hyPIR\u2122 imaging and our automated principle component analysis tools provide complete image and spectral data\u2011sets with minimal effort.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Engineered for precision<\/strong><\/h2>\n

        Capacitive sensors + optical encoders<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Our motorized stage features 6 mm travel and optical encoders for precision control. The capacitive sensors in our AFM scanner ensure linear scans with a ~100 pm RMS precision.<\/p>\n

        Dual Z<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Image samples faster without introducing artifacts. Our dual Z\u2011piezo scanner system provides accurate scans with a large 12 \u00b5m vertical range.<\/p>\n

        \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Accessible and stable AFM head<\/strong><\/h2>\n

        Invar construction<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Both the head and scanner are made of invar for the best thermal stability possible.<\/p>\n

        Low profile stability<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Our low-profile AFM head allows us to use top objective lenses with high numerical apertures. This provides an excellent optical view of the sample. The head also features the most stable mount configuration for low drift and acoustic stability<\/p>\n

        \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Versatile optical pathways<\/strong><\/h2>\n

        Bottom optics*<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Nano-precision independent scanning allows moving the excitation source focus spot in 3D space.<\/p>\n

        Many optical views<\/strong><\/p>\n

          \n
        • Access the top, bottom, or side of the AFM tip via the top objective, bottom optics, and parabolic mirror.<\/li>\n
        • Configure up to 6 lasers for PiFM and PiF-IR.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

           <\/p>\n

          Customizable environments<\/strong><\/h2>\n

          Optional environmental cover<\/strong><\/p>\n

          Our optional environmental\/vacuum cover allows customization of the entire microscope environment. Work under partial pressure with any gas, pump down to vacuum, or control the humidity.<\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

          Work in your element<\/strong><\/h2>\n

          No need to whisper<\/strong><\/p>\n

          Install Vista One anywhere you want, and our combination of acoustic enclosure, active isolation table, and external cable frame ensure the AFM tip stays quiet.\u2020<\/sup><\/p>\n

          Thermal isolation<\/strong><\/p>\n

          Our Acoustic Chamber features a temperature control unit to keep the entire system stable within \u00b10.1 \u00baC. *<\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

          Versatile and customizable<\/strong><\/h2>\n

          Any optical technique<\/strong><\/p>\n

          Vista One is our original PiF microscope designed to handle any optical experiment. It also supports sSNOM, confocal Raman, and many custom designed experiments.<\/p>\n

          Customize any optic<\/strong><\/p>\n

          We use standard optical components from ThorLabs and other suppliers. This means that you aren\u2019t tied into a proprietary system and your Vista One will be infinitely configurable by nature.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
