Nanowire and Nanorod Analysis In
Hyperspectral Light Scatter Or
Reflected Light

Nanowires and Nanorods Can be Analyzed Non-Destructively in Hyperspectral Reflection, or Scattered Light.

Map The Spatial Distribution Of Metals, Metal Oxides, Carbon And Silicon As a Function Of Their Spectral Characteristics
  • The PARISS® Analytical Hyperspectral Imaging system: is a microscope accessory to perform spectral analysis and mapping of nanowires and nanorods.
  • Non-destructive: Benign illumination minimizes photo degradation in dark-field light scatter
  • No vacuum: Or special prep needed! Works with "wet" samples !
  • Reveal the location: nano-sized objects can be imaged and mapped, in color-codes, onto a grayscale image of the field of view - with absolute accuracy!
  • Detect and analyze: Characterize defects as a function of change in spectral characteristics
  • Spectral characterization of metals and metal oxides: Including, but certainly not limited to, gold, silver, titanium, cerium, cobalt, silicon and carbon nanotubes
  • Work in LOW magnification: Observe extended fields of view in magnifications ranging from 10 to 100X
  • Spectral mapping of mixed metals: Reveal the location of metals as a function of its spectrum in hyperspectral images
  • Low cost alternative: To SEM and TEM for many applications!
  • Data is instrument independent
  • Fluorescence: PARISS easily switches between light scatter and fluorescence

Spectra of a gold standard compared to two positions along a gold nanowire
Spectral analysis of a Gold Nanowire
Nanowire Imaging presentation

Comparison of the spectrum of a gold standard and the spectra of two locations along a gold nanowire. Subtle differences in spectra can indicate the presence of materials that have bonded to the gold.

 The Hyperspectral analysis of the tip of a multi-metal nanowire reveals that subtle differences in the gold spectrum are a function of spatial location. Variations in spectra were classified and pseudo-color coded, then they were used to map the distribution of spectral classes
