Infrared Microscopy

The Quantum Focus Instruments Infrascope II is a microscope that images emitted thermal photons from samples to measure absolute temperature and/or hot spots.

Applications of this technique include:

  1. 2-dimensional thermal mapping with objectives (X2, X5, and X15)
  2. high speed (~3 μs Δ) temperature measurement of a single area using transient detector
  3. Hot spot & short detection in electronic circuit boards
  4. Transient junction temperature measurements

System Capabilities:

  • 3 dB bandwidth of 250 KHz
  • QFI designed refractive infrared microscope objectives (2X, 5X, 15X)
  • High resolution thermal mapping, 18-2.8 micron
  • Live temperature imaging
  • Real time ‘every pixel’ emissivity correction
  • Stand alone image viewing and analysis software for remote analysis
  • Computer-controlled fine focusing stage
  • Single element, high-speed transient thermal detector
  • InfraRed thermal pulse measurement
  • Calibrated temperature vs. time output
