Raman scattering is a fundamental form of molecular spectroscopy that conveys information about the structural properties of molecules based on their vibrational transition during interaction with a light source. Raman spectroscopy has become a widely used technique for chemical identification by many professionals, including academic scholars and laboratory scientists, industrial problem solvers, process and control engineers, or quality control technicians. Benefits of Raman spectroscopy over other modalities include:
- Accuracy
- Convenience - Requires little sample preparation
- Versatility - Suitable for a large range of analytes
- Time Efficiency - Data collection within seconds
