In this webinar, we will highlight how Photoluminescence and Raman microscopies can address semiconductor challenges. We will also show how the combination of micro-spectroscopies with AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy) can provide nano resolution and deeper understanding of these structures.

More and more, Raman microscopy is being used for a wide variety of applications. As a vibrational spectroscopy, it is mainly compared with Infrared absorption. However, the origins of this Raman effect and the information provided by Raman spectroscopy are different than any other. During this webinar, we will present what the Raman effect is and what kind of information can be obtained based on a Raman spectrum.

Standard spontaneous Raman scattering effect is limited by its sensitivity. Different strategies are set in place to improve the sensitivity and the mapping speed based on different physical phenomena. These approaches resulted in the development of Stimulated Raman Spectroscopy (SRS), Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Spectroscopy (CARS), Resonant Raman spectroscopy, etc., each of which have advantages and limitations. During this webinar, we will present the concept of these different techniques, and discuss their benefits and concerns.

SignatureSPM, the first multimodal characterization system built on an automated Atomic Force Microscope platform and integrating a Raman/Photoluminescence spectrometer, enables true colocalized measurements of physical and chemical properties. Raman spectroscopy, within this colocalized approach, provides essential data about the molecular structures and compositions, including potential contaminants at microscale. Simultaneously, AFM contributes information about the topographical and mechanical properties of the samples, offering detailed data into their surface textures, surface adhesion, roughness, and stiffness at nanoscale.

Microplastics are becoming the 21st century environmental scourge. To control it, more and more regulations are being set in all countries worldwide to monitor the amount of microparticles released in the environment. Thus, some techniques have been identified as reference methods: Pyrolysis GC-MS, Infrared microscopy, and Raman microscopy. This last one provides the best combination of information in both morphological and chemical characterization of each particle down to the micron. During this webinar, we will present how Raman microscopy is becoming the best reference method for microplastics characterization.

Raman microscopy is more and more becoming a standard method in many application domains. This transforms Raman microscopy from a high-end technique to one that is widely used. Consequently, it has to come with tips-and-tricks, but also with dedicated tools to support these different applications. These supporting tools can be accessories or software dedicated apps. During this webinar, we detailed the tools and accessories supporting Raman microscopy for specific applications.

Raman spectroscopy is a good technique for chemical and physical characterization of materials, but suffers from a few limitations like a lack of sensitivity, or its micron scale resolution. Since the 1970s, the coupling of the plasmonic effect with Raman is more and more being used to overcome these limits. This phenomena association results in two enhanced Raman spectroscopies called SERS and TERS, respectively associated to Surface and Tip origins. During this webinar, we present how the coupling of plasmonic and Raman effects results to with SERS and TERS and details some applications.

With the global energetic transition and the move from thermic to electric cars, the improvement of battery becomes crucial. With that development, the analytical techniques used must be also adapted and developed to understand the physical and chemical processes occurring at the electrodes and electrolyte levels. Thus, Raman microscopy is an ideal method as it provides physical and chemical properties of materials in a non-invasive approach.

See examples of macroscopic and microscopic Raman and X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy for various applications in forensic science, including the identification and characterization of pharmaceutical products, paint pigments and gemstones.

Raman microscopy is the combination of the Raman effect and optical microscopy. A Raman microscope is the association of multiple components where each of them is playing a specific role to achieve highly resolved and sensitive measurements. During this webinar, we present the role of each component of a Raman microscope and detail their characteristics and limits.

Raman microscopy couples both submicron-scale spatial resolution and high spectral resolution. Thus, achieving the best performances is dependent on a good calibration in both spatial and spectral dimensions. During this webinar, we detailed the different calibration routines applied on Raman microscopy to achieve ideal measurements while remaining compliant with regulations. We also explained how these routines work and why they are important to consider.

The pharmaceutical product development process involves many different steps and needs in molecular characterization. Thus, understanding API crystal forms, controlling API and excipients interactions or process optimization needs techniques that are able to manage different forms of molecules with a minimal sample preparation. As a result, Raman microscopy is so becoming a standard technique in pharmaceutical laboratories.

Optical microscopy is very common technique for visualization and characterization at the micron scale. Many modalities exist to highlight different features. However, the chemical information is almost always missing. Raman spectroscopy is a complementary technique that can provide chemical information about the sample. During this webinar, we presented how these different microscopy modalities, combined with Raman spectroscopy, make Raman microscopy so powerful.
