TRIOS

TRIOS - Versatile AFM Optical Coupling. The TRIOS platform is an advanced research instrument that provides the entry path for researchers in materials science, biology, spectroscopy and photonics. TRIOS is the most versatile optical coupling platform providing three ports for optical spectroscopy measurements with top-down, side (oblique) and inverted accesses to the AFM tip and sample. If you work with opaque and/or transparent samples, either in air or in liquid looking at nanoscale structures and near-field optical properties investigation, the TRIOS platform is the right solution for you. It perfectly combines upright optical, inverted optical, and atomic force microscopies, and unleash all the power of both techniques providing instrument adjustment and measurement automation, high resolution and integration flexibility. Such performance is only available from HORIBA. TRIOS can be easily combined to turn-key Raman/PL systems for co-localized AFM-Raman/PL measurements, Scanning Near-Field Optical Microscopies (SNOM), and Tip-Enhanced Optical Spectroscopies (TERS and TEPL). Features include: Simultaneous optical accesses - triple port configuration combining upright and transmission configurations, two simultaneous optical accesses possible. Extraordinary productivity and easy operation - fully motorized CombiScope AFM with automated click-on-a-button laser-to-tip alignment, fully motorized cantilever holder and photodiode positioning. Top level scanner - closed loop, high-dynamics, 3-axis piezo-nanopositioning scanner from Physik Instrumente. 1300 nm AFM laser eliminates any interference with VIS light-sensitive biological and semiconductor samples.
