The Spero-QT is the next breakthrough in label-free chemical imaging and represents the second generation of high-performance infrared microscopes powered by quantum cascade laser (QCL) technology. The Spero-QT shares the wide-field, high-resolution attributes of its predecessor but has the ability to produce twice the data in 1/10 of the time while achieving unprecedented signal-to-noise levels. Furthermore, the footprint is smaller and the stage travel can now accommodate up to 3 slides. A larger sample compartment area also makes the Spero-QT more compatible with microfluidic devices and accessories.
