Nondestructive and Label-free Chemical Detection at the Nanoscale

Bruker Nano Surfaces Division has announced the release of IRIS TERS Probes. By enabling Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (TERS), the IRIS TERS Probes provide users a complete path to nondestructive, label-free chemical detection at the nanoscale. The Tips are compatible with the Innova- IRIS and third-party research Raman systems.

All existing Innova- IRIS systems only require a new cartridge to start using them immediately. Utilized on the Innova-IRIS, the IRIS TERS Probes enable TERS on opaque samples using scanning tunneling microscopy feedback. Being made of solid gold, the IRIS TERS Probes are optimized for highest TERS enhancement at red and near-infrared Raman excitation wavelengths.
