Oxford Instruments provides market-leading scientific technology and expertise to academic and commercial organizations worldwide. Oxford Instruments provides diverse solutions across photonics research and development including high-performance scientific cameras, spectrographs, 3D Raman imaging, atomic force microscopy, and plasma processing solutions for semiconductor development.
Scientific Cameras
Oxford Instruments Andor’s innovative low light detectors, spectroscopy systems and optical cryostats enable fundamental and applied research in areas such as astronomy, material science, quantum optics, chemistry, catalysis, plasma science, and fluid physics. Camera systems include:
Serving astronomy, life science, and research segments, our line of high-performance scientific cameras combines sensitivity and high speed for both visible and shortwave-infrared spectra (SWIR) using EMCCD, e-APD, InGaAs, and CMOS sensors.
Spectrographs
Our modular spectroscopy platforms cover a range from UV to SWIR and various scales from macro to nano. These platforms are capable of detecting fluxes as low as single photons and have a time-resolution reaching nanoseconds.
- Modular Spectrographs: Czerny-Turner and Echelle
- Detectors: CCD, EMCCD, ICCD, InGaAs and sCMOS
- Optical Cryostats: <3k to 500k temperature range
- Software/SDK platforms: offering rich functionality for data acquisition and processing
Raman Microscopy
Our confocal Raman imaging microscopes for 2D and 3D chemical characterization provide the highest speed, sensitivity, and resolution – without compromise. Their modular design provides the flexibility to configure each system for the individual requirements of our customers and to adapt to future challenges. Possible combinations include Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Nearfield-microscopy (SNOM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).
Atomic Force Microscopy
We are specialists in atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning probe microscopy (SPM), offering a wide range of solutions including the first commercial interferometric, large-sample, fast-scanning, and video-rate AFMs.
Plasma Technology
Our plasma processing solutions for the engineering of semiconductor structures and devices provide solutions for precise material deposition, etching features, and controlled growth of nanostructures, based on core technologies in plasma-enhanced deposition and etch, ion-beam deposition and etch, and ALD.
Additional Technologies
In addition to these, Oxford Instruments provides leading instrumentation in
electron microscopy detectors,
nanoindentation,
nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and
low temperature systems.
