Chief Spectroscopic Techniques Supported
Comprehensive spectral analysis and nondestructive imaging solution with high depth of penetration.
Markets Served
Utilizing the unique properties of the terahertz region (0.1–10.0 THz) of the electromagnetic spectrum, these systems perform nondestructive analysis of pharmaceuticals, chemicals, communications materials, and more, without requiring a specially constructed analysis environment. In addition to industrial applications, the TAS7500 series is also an optimal choice for terahertz-related research.
Major Products/Services
