Laser Ablation System

Iridia Laser Ablation

The sole purpose of the Iridia is to make laser ablation ICP-MS applications faster to run and easier to set up, together with powerful software that vastly simplifies the optimization of both laser and ICP-MS, and offers all the required data reduction tools to guarantee consistently high quality analytical data. Setting the correct gas flows and Dynamic-Z position for your samples is quick and easy and once set these settings remain stable from day to day, month to month, negating the need for time consuming daily optimizations.

Teledyne Photon Machines employs an “Engineered by Science” approach with all hardware and software products. This means everything we do is designed with the end user in mind, fully field tested in the real world and proven through peer reviewed and published data.

The LSX-213 G2+ system features the latest in optical design technology to target areas of interest. Built on the rugged and field proven LSX platform, the Light Engine inside the LSX-213 is a hermetically sealed, MIL-SPEC laser head affording unmatched stability and user serviceability. Coupled with precision mounted optical components on a vibration isolated optical bench, the system can be used on multiple analytical instruments at multiple locations with confidence and ease. Simple, elegant component layout leads to improved stability and ease of maintenance. The laser ablation platform incorporates an open architecture sample area that enables flexibility for a wide range of specialized and custom sample cells.

Spot sizes ranging from 4 μm to 200 μm are generated using aperture imaging technology, and are easily set using software control. From power, spot size and scan speed to control over timing and communication with your spectrometer, Teledyne CETAC Technologies is focused on making your job easier; simply Target, Ablate, and Analyze.

The LSX-213 incorporates the latest in high resolution hardware and optical design technology, providing the user with excellent optical resolution and a wide field of view. Images are of startling quality, and high intensity lighting arrays above and below the sample produce extremely clear images even at high zoom.
