Portable Handheld Raman Spectrometer microRAMAN

Compact handheld Raman Analyzer for Instant Chemical Identification in the Field

The microRAMAN is a new-generation handheld Raman spectrometer designed for the rapid identification of unknown chemicals, explosives, narcotics, pharmaceuticals, hazardous materials, and many other substances. In particular, it enables fast and reliable analysis in demanding field conditions.

Using advanced Raman spectroscopy technology, the device provides non-destructive analysis through packaging, making it ideal for field operations where speed, safety, and accuracy are critical. Furthermore, thanks to its modern hardware, unique identification algorithm, and simple operation, the device is widely used by security forces, the pharmaceutical industry, and incoming product control teams.

Flexibility of the latest handheld Raman Spectrometer

Our microRAMAN, handheld Raman spectrometer, identifies substances based on their unique molecular fingerprint. Thanks to the 785nm laser delivering up to 470 mW optical power and the latest advanced CMOS sensor, which provides high sensitivity without cooling, you can rapidly identify an unknown substance without unpacking it. In addition, you simply choose the appropriate adapter and measure directly through the wall of the packaging.

The microRAMAN device directs a laser at the sample and then analyzes the scattered light to determine its chemical composition. As a result, it enables accurate identification without altering or destroying the material.

Why to choose
the microRAMAN?

Modern hardware supports computational power

 The microRAMAN combines portability, accuracy, and speed in a single device, making it a reliable solution for field identification. In addition, our handheld spectrometer features the most modern hardware with high software and hardware performance. Thanks to RS DYNAMICS’s latest software update, you can measure either a single substance or mixtures. To achieve the best results, simply subtract the spectrum of the packaging material.

785 nm vs 1064 nm Raman Spectroscopy:
The Ultimate Balance of Sensitivity and Performance

 

785 nm handheld Raman spectrometer is preferred solution over 1064 nm because it provides a stronger signal and better sensitivity. The shorter wavelength generates more intense Raman scattering, resulting in a higher signal-to-noise ratio and faster measurements.

 

While 1064 nm reduces fluorescence more effectively, it produces a much weaker Raman signal, which can lead to longer acquisition times and lower spectral detail.

 

In summary, 785 nm offers a balanced compromise—sufficient fluorescence suppression with significantly better performance for most practical applications.
