3.1 Microscope variants
The HYPERION microscope is available in three different variants:
HYPERION 1000 - Basic variant
This variant is designed for IR spectro-
scopic measurements in transmission
and reflection. In addition, optional objec-
tives (e.g. ATR objective, GIR objective)
can be used with this microscope variant.
By default, it is equipped with a manually
operated microscope stage which allows
for single point measurements.
HYPERION 2000 - Advanced variant
This variant includes in addition a LCD
color monitor and a motorized x/y-stage
instead of a manually operated stage.
The motorized x/y-stage allows for per-
forming mapping measurements.
HYPERION 3000 - Variant for imaging
microscopic FT IR spectroscopy
This variant includes all technical fea-
tures of the HYPERION 2000 variant
plus a FPA detector for imaging FT IR
spectroscopy.
