The Science
Discover the science, applications and instrument design behind the CRAIC Technologies innovations.
CRAIC Technologies™ employs the latest in science and technology to produce the instruments you need for your work. This is the portal that discusses the science, applications and instrument design of all of the CRAIC Technologies innovations. In it, we discuss UV-visible-NIR microspectroscopy, UV-visible-NIR microscopy, microscope photometry and Raman microspectroscopy. All of these solutions, and the science behind them, have applications in fields ranging from semiconductors, flat panel displays, biology, biotechnology, chemistry, physics and even forensics.
UV-vis-NIR Microspectrometers
UV-visible-NIR microspectrophotometer: an instrument designed to measure the UV-visible-NIR spectra of microscopic samples by transmittance, reflectance, polarization, fluorescence, and other types of luminescence. With specialized software, they can be used to measure thin film thickness, colorimetry and more. The following links have more information:

UV-vis-NIR Microscope Photometers
UV-visible-NIR microscope photometers: an instrument designed to measure the UV-visible-NIR spectra of microscopic samples by transmittance, reflectance, polarization, fluorescence, and other types of luminescence. With specialized software, they can be used to measure thin film thickness, colorimetry and more. The following links have more information:
UV and NIR Microscopes
UV-visible-NIR microscopes: CRAIC Technologies UV and NIR microscope systems allow the user to image items that cannot be seen with commonly available microscopes that only cover the visible range. This capability is useful in diverse fields such as a protein crystal analysis for drug discovery to contamination control for semiconductors to imaging inside of bonded silicon devices. The following links contain more information:
Raman Microspectrometers
Raman microspectrometer: an instrument designed to measure the Raman spectra of microscopic samples. The following links contain more information about CRAIC Technologies Raman microspectrometer solutions:
Micro-Colorimetry
Microcolorimetry is colorimetry of microscopic samples or the determination of color spaces of microcopic sample areas.
Microspot Thin Film Thickness Measurement
Thin Film Thickness Measurement: microspectrophotometers use interferometry to measure the thickness of films deposited on surfaces. This can be done either by transmission through the film or reflectance off of it:
