09 Mar 2012 Tornado Medical Systems (Tornado), developer of spectroscopic solutions for sample identification, detection, diagnosis and imaging announced the launch of its much anticipated HyperFlux line of spectrometers. This ground-breaking technology overcomes the expensive trade-off between light throughput and spectral resolution.
Traditional spectrometers lose a substantial amount of throughput as the light passes through the physical slit. The HyperFlux replaces the slit completely with Tornado’s proprietary HTVS (High Throughput Virtual Slit) technology; preserving very high resolution with virtually no throughput loss to achieve market-leading spectroscopy results. In its first implementation for Raman spectroscopy, the HyperFlux achieved a resolution of 0.2 nm with an average of 10-20x increase in light throughput compared to systems with similar resolution. The HyperFlux and the HTVS technology can be customized to enhance the performance of other spectrometer designs. Tornado’s current HyperFlux line-up consists of three available models: 532nm, 785nm and 830nm, with more coming in the first half of 2012.
