The best CCD-array spectrometers for fluorescence, DNA sequencing, and Raman analysis are those with high sensitivity for low light applications. Research and development (R&D) has fueled the semiconductor industry’s high pace of innovation for years by creating novel materials and streamlining production methods.
Semiconductors (particularly silicon) are a basic and essential component in numerous application domains, including electronics, aerospace, and renewable energy (photovoltaics or hydrogen technology).
On the other hand, silicon quality control, such as the identification and quantification of impurities, the detection of defects, or the functionality test of optical devices, becomes a crucial and difficult task in the semiconductor industry.
FT-IR spectroscopy stands out among other techniques for semiconductor QC as a simple and efficient instrument. Bruker offers a wide range of products to support process control and development innovation. Bench-top spectrometer analyses of band gap and electronic characteristics, phonon spectroscopy, and photoluminescence provide insightful data on crystal structure and quality.
The Global High Sensitivity Imaging Spectrometer Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2024 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The new NIRQuest+ line of NIR spectrometers has been introduced by Ocean Insight, a firm that applies spectral information. The optical bench design of NIRQuest+ spectrometers has been improved for high-sensitivity performance, enabling low limits of detection at NIR wavelengths between 900 and 2500. There are three versions available: 900-1700 nm, 900-2200 nm, and 900-2500 nm.
As NIRQuest+’s enhanced sensitivity enables users to record the required spectra over shorter integration times, it is suitable for usage in the lab as well as on the line, such as on a conveyor belt or in a sample stream. It also has excellent thermal stability.
Common uses include measuring the moisture content of fruits and grains, identifying plastics for recycling and industrial use, and keeping track of the components used in pharmaceutical manufacturing processes.
NIRQuest+ is also capable of measuring extremely minute variations in absorbed signal, which are typical of NIR harmonic overtones. Better measurement accuracy is made possible by its increased sensitivity, especially in low light situations.
Moreover, NIRQuest+ measures diffuse reflection at low noise levels at longer wavelengths, producing clearer spectra at wavelengths where it might be challenging to detect discrete spectral features.
Ocean Insight provides a range of capabilities for modular NIR solutions for customer integration projects, including machine learning algorithm development for advanced data identification and quantification, in-house feasibility and verification testing through Ocean Lab Services, and expert engineering support for OEM level optimization of spectrometer optics and accessories.
