Raman Spectroscopy | 1 photon : 1,000,000 Raleigh Unchanged Elastic Scattering Raman Inelastic Scattering Laser 785 nm Excitation
Mid-IRNIR reflectanceRaman Mechanism: absorption by fundamental molecular vibrational modes Molecular Specificity: high Signal Strength: strong Energy: cm -1 Sampling: direct material contact required, glass and water appear opaque; can rarely see through container materials Hardware: probes extremely expensive, and short in length, size and weight Mechanism: absorption by harmonics of fundamental vibrational modes of X-H bonds (e.g., N-H, O-H) Molecular Specificity: low Signal Strength: weak Energy: ,500 cm -1 Sampling: non-contact, but close proximity to material required (<5 mm) Hardware: longer probes possible (meters); quartz optics; dispersive, interferometry common Mechanism: inelastic scattering by vibrational, rotational, low frequency molecular modes. Molecular Specificity: high Signal Strength: weak Energy: cm -1 shift Sampling: container interference is mitigated by accessories Hardware: CCD detection; quartz optics; long probes common (kilometers in some cases) |
