About Raman spectroscopy

Raman spectroscopy is a complementary technique to infrared absorption and reflection spectroscopy, that can be used for chemical and structural analysis. In addition may be used to reveal electronic structures via excitation profiles and resonance effects. Here, inclusion of polarization effects provides information about symmetry and molecular orientation.

It is a non-destructive technique that often provides the opportunity to be applied directly on several types of samples without preparation. Our Raman system also enables xyz-mappings and surface scans on samples via confocal microscopy.
