The medical field is a new frontier for Raman spectroscopy. Raman has already been employed in dentistry and cancer investigations, and it is now expanding into Point-of-Care (POC) applications. This ...

Researchers have developed a culture-free diagnostic platform capable of identifying microbial infections in just 20 minutes, ...

Raman spectroscopy is an analytical technique that allows for the assessment of molecular structure and the identification of materials by examining the rotational and vibrational modes of molecules.

At its simplest, Raman spectroscopy is a light-scattering technique. When monochromatic light, usually from a laser, hits a sample, most of it returns unchanged. But a small portion scatters ...

Researchers demonstrated that encapsulating molecules in cucurbit[7]uril enhances single-molecule SERS reliability. The ...

(a) Schematic diagram of the pump burst and the Stokes burst in the time domain. N: number of pulses in burst. ∆τ: inter-pulse temporal separation. φ: pulse-to-pulse offset phase. Ω R: Raman frequency ...

A research team led by Prof. Fang Yonghua from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences ...

Visualization of Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (TERS): This diagram illustrates the interaction of a laser beam with a sample surface through a sharp metallic tip. The red laser light excites the ...

Graphene is a material that has a one-atom layer of carbon atoms with a thickness of only 335 pm. It can be modified using oxidization and functionalization. For example, graphene gains properties ...

There are around 20 known MXene structures at present, and some of the main excitement around these materials comes from some of their potential applications, including as energy storage materials. 2 ...
