Request InfoOcean Optics - Part of Ocean InsightOcean Optics has expanded its Elite Series of modular spectrometers with the introduction of the Ventana line. Ventana spectrometers combine an optical bench configuration with high collection efficiency and a volume phase holographic grating to provide high throughput and sensitivity for low-light-level applications. Three preconfigured Ventana spectrometers are available: 532- and 785-nm excitation wavelength Raman models, and a visible to near-IR model for general purpose fluorescence applications. With its high sensitivity performance and compact size, Ventana is suitable for...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSBioPhotonics Jul/Aug 2023 IssueSpectrometersThe Ocean SR series of spectrometers from Ocean Optics offers rapid spectral acquisition speed and high signal-to-noise ratio performance.
