Elliot Scientific now representing Raman Imaging specialists WITec in the UK and Eire

Unique correlative analysis in one instrument: Raman/AFM, Raman/SNOM
Elliot Scientific has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with WITec GmbH, of Ulm in Germany, to distribute their range of award-winning Raman imaging instruments.
WITec is a market leading manufacturer of high-quality micro- and nano-analytical imaging equipment featuring confocal Raman microscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Scanning Near-field Optical Microscopy (SNOM) techniques for the geoscience researcher, forensic scientist, pharmaceutical lab technician, semiconductor manufacturer, and food and drinks technologist.
The WITec product line of high-resolution SNOM, AFM and confocal Raman imaging solutions will be the responsibility of our Managing Director, Dr. Adrian Knowles.
Adrian is a qualified chemist and is well known within the spectroscopy community, especially within the field of Raman spectroscopy. His knowledge encompasses a wide range of technologies that include CCD cameras, fibre-optics, microscopy systems, Raman spectrometers and fluorimeters. His broad market visibility has been fundamental in the success and growth of several photonics and spectroscopy companies during his 20 year career.
Our team of scientists and engineers has nearly 30 years of experience in sales of light-based technologies to academia and industry. With expertise in key WITec application areas of forensics, geoscience, the life sciences, materials science, photonics and semiconductors, Elliot Scientific is the ideal partner for supporting WITec instruments within the UK and Ireland.

Latest miniature spectrometers from Spectral Products are packed with great features

Spectral Products is a leading designer and manufacturer of sophisticated instruments such as spectrometers, monochromators, light sources and related equipment.
Their SM miniature spectrometers deliver numerous features and high performance within a small footprint. The series is based on a crossed Czerny-Turner configuration and also uses unique linear variable long pass filters to give broadband simultaneous wavelength coverage that is free of higher order interference.
A wide selection of UV/VIS/NIR (regular and back-thinned/TE-cooled CCD) and NIR/MIR (InGaAs, PbS, and PbSe) detectors enable Spectral Products to offer more than a dozen models to suit applications found in science and industry. For example:
- Raman spectroscopy
- Colour/LED measurement
- Luminescence spectroscopy
- Laser breakdown spectroscopy
- Arc, spark & plasma spectroscopy
- Picosecond laser analysis & ratiometry
- Spectrophotometry & spectroradiometry
- Process control, diagnostics & calibration
- Emission & excitation fluorescence spectroscopy
All detectors are thermo-electrically cooled for optimal operational stability, and ruled or holographic gratings are fitted depending on the chosen wavelength range. In addition, different slit sizes are available to alter the spectrometer’s resolution. Please contact us for further details.

Ultra-high Resolution Raman Spectroscopy from CRAIC Technologies’ Artemis™ System

Ultra-high resolution Raman microspectroscopy is now available throughout the UK and Ireland as Elliot Scientific introduces the CRAIC Artemis™ Raman Spectrometer – available as an add-on for modern research grade microscopes, or as an option for CRAIC’s existing range of UV-Vis-NIR Microspectrophotometers.
Perfect for research, metrology and quality control, the CRAIC Artemis™ Raman system has been designed specifically for microscopic sample. Its patented virtual slit technology dramatically increases the sensitivity of the spectrometer, offers an extraordinarily large spectral range, yet maintains the high speeds and spectral resolution for which CRAIC microspectrometers are known.
The Artemis™ modules are available in many different laser wavelengths and two can be combined for the ultimate in experimental flexibility. Easy to use and economical to own and operate, they enable rapid sample analysis within life sciences, materials science, chemistry and physics.
Each module includes a choice of diode laser, imaging and microscope optical interface, durable solid-state Raman spectrometer, and software from CRAIC – the experts in microspectroscopy.
