Spectroscopy magazine is seeking contributed manuscripts for its June 2014 supplement on Raman spectroscopy. Suitable papers will discuss recent advances in the methods or its applications.

Readers may wish to review our 2013 and 2012 supplements.

Manuscripts should be approximately 2,000-2,500 words long, plus figures and tables as needed, including an abstract of approximately 150-200 words. Applications articles should follow a standard experimental article format. Figures and tables, along with their captions, should appear at the end of the manuscript, and figures also must be sent as separate files, preferably in JPG, TIF, PNG, or XLS format. References should be called out using numbers in parentheses and listed at the end of the manuscript in numerical order.

Submissions from equipment manufacturers will be considered but must be devoid of promotional content; discussions of new technology should not focus on a specific manufacturer’s instrument.
