Application Notes: Molecular

High structural selectivity of Raman, with spectral & spatial resolution & non-destructive nature of Raman make it ideal as a standard characterization tool in the growing field of graphene.

A reverse engineering study on a bipolar plate from a commercial vehicle using GD-OES & Raman spectroscopy. The analyses revealed the plate had an amorphous carbon coating on a titanium base plate.

Raman microscopy is a powerful technique for identifying the source of forensic samples, such as paint traces. As a non-destructive method of forensic analysis, evidence samples are not compromised during investigation. During forensic investigations, evidence samples are often compared to a database of known specimens for identification. In this Application Note, we show how the RM5 can be used to differentiate between different samples and how spectral library searching allows for the matching of paint samples within seconds.
