An important aspect of Raman effect is that it is extremely sensitive to even small amount of differences in chemical structures. Even if all vibrations are not observed with Raman spectroscopy, ...

Multifunctional Raman micro-spectroscopy is implemented using an inverted microscope (IX-71, Olympus), SpectraPro-275 spectrometer (Acton Research Corporation), an electron multiplying charge coupled ...

SERS offers a greater signal-to-noise ratio than ordinary Raman spectroscopy, so it is useful in single-molecule detection or detecting analytes in low concentrations. Improvement of the spectroscopic ...

An interview with Keith Carron, conducted by Stuart Milne, BA, and James Ives, BSc. Safety is the primary concern for first responders and military personnel when they arrive at a scene with unknown, ...

Transmission Raman Spectroscopy is a variation of transmission Raman spectroscopy that is often used to probe the bulk properties of samples that scatter diffusely. It is particularly useful for the ...
