The new Bruker nanoIR3-s Broadband is the most advanced nanoscale FTIR spectroscopy system available today. The system combines:
- s-SNOM (scattering Scanning Near-field Optical Microscopy) platform established with the nanoIR3-s.
- Advanced femtosecond IR laser technology.
This powerful combination sets new standards in nanoscale infrared spectroscopy and nanochemical imaging.
The nanoIR3-s Broadband delivers the broadest, tunable mid-IR spectral range, together with the highest power and the lowest noise. It offers unrivalled correlation to FTIR spectroscopy. Overall, the new system provides the broadest coverage for nanoscale chemical applications in both organic and inorganic materials.

Applications
The nanoIR3-s Broadband’s high resolution nanochemical and nano-optical imaging capabilities are valuable in a variety of fields including:
- Advanced polymeric materials
- Life science
- 2D materials
- Plasmonic fields
- Nanophotonic structures

Broadest Spectral Range
A unique feature of the nanoIR3-s Broadband is the capability for nanoscale imaging and spectroscopy across the whole mid-infrared spectral range (2.5 to 15 μm / 4000 to 670 cm-1). This is achieved with a broadband light source using a new femtosecond OPO/DFG laser.
The laser source can switch its linewidth for imaging and spectroscopy, in addition to high laser power and wide spectral range.
All in all, the nanoIR3-s Broadband delivers the highest performance spectroscopy and imaging for 2D materials and graphene, together with nanoscale material property mapping and sample environmental control options.
