The Mini PL 110 is a miniature instrument employing a scanning monochromator with detector with gated boxcar integrator and averager with a nearly 7-decade dynamic range.

The DUV Raman PL 200 is a more traditional, but still miniature, deep UV Raman and fluorescence spectrograph employing a TE cooled back thinned, back illuminated CCD array detector. A major driving motivation for deep UV Raman methods is avoidance of fluorescence obscuration or interference with Raman spectral emissions. A second driving motivation for the DUV Raman PL 200 is the ability to detect both Raman and fluorescence emission, which provide different but complementary information about a targeted material. Raman provides information about molecular resonances while fluorescence provides information about overall electronic configuration for a material.

The MOSAIC DUV Fluorescence Mapper is a small size, light weight, lower power system focused on detection and classification of ultra-trace concentration of organic contaminants on surfaces such as high-performance optical components, semiconductors and other manufactured surfaces susceptible to ultra-trace levels of contamination. A major driving motivation for MOSAIC is the ability to spatially map or image chemical contaminants of critical component surfaces as part of QA processes.
