Raman spectroscopy provides
information regarding the mo-
lecular vibrations present in a
system and can be used as a
complementary technique to IR
spectroscopy to help identify a
sample’s “fingerprint.” Often used in the pharmaceutical in-
dustry, the method is nondestructive with little sample
preparation required.

Teledyne Hastings Instruments, Hampton, Va., re-
leased a
mass flow unit conversion app
for
iPhone, iPad, and Android-based devices. The app
allows users to quickly and easily convert between
mass flow units, such as sccm, slm, gm/sec, lb/hr,
scfm, mole/min, and scim. The app is very flexi-
ble and allows users to select gas type as well
as gas reference conditions. The free app also
lets users access the informative white paper,
Best
Practices for Mass Flow Controllers.
Search the Apple or
Android App Stores to download. A website version of the
tool is available at
massflowconverter.com.
A new HMT
residual gas analyzer
(RGA) from Hiden Ana-
lytical Ltd., UK, offers a single partial pressure gauge to op-
erate through the full
vacuum spectrum from
ultra-high vacuum (UHV)
through millitorr. It provides
process gas trend analysis,
vacuum background diag-
nostics, and leak detection.
The integral dual-detector
enables monitoring at high pressure by Faraday detector
and at lower pressures to UHV by electron multiplier detec-
tor, giving full conventional RGA specification with partial
pressure detection down to 2 × 10E
-13
mbar and a total dy-
namic range in excess of 10 decades.

Carl Zeiss AG, Germany, introduced LSM 880 with Airyscan,
a new
confocal laser scanning microscope.
It offers high
sensitivity, enhanced resolution in
X, Y
, and
Z,
and high
image-acquisition speed in one system. A 1.7 × higher res-
olution is achieved in all spatial dimensions—140 nm later-
ally and 400 nm axially. Improved sensitivity leads to better
image quality and increased speed. Instead of detecting sig-
nals with a single point detector, a multichannel area detec-
tor with 32 elements collects all the light from an Airy disk
simultaneously. Users can take full advantage of large fields
of view and the highest
speed of any linear
scanning confocal
microscope at an
unsurpassed
image
quality.
