Expert View: Raman imaging and spectral database management for pharmaceutics
19 December 2018 | By Harald Fischer
Sophisticated hardware and software offer speed and precision. Pharmaceutical development often involves samples in solution or on transparent substrates. For these applications, confocal Raman imaging using an inverted beam path is an especially versatile and powerful investigative method.
Whitepaper: A high-quality Raman microscope can be recognised by these five criteria
13 December 2018 | By WItec GmbH
90 years ago Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman and Kariamanickam Srinivasa Krishnan first documented "A New Type of Secondary Radiation," which then became known as the Raman Effect [1, 2]. Raman spectroscopy is based on this effect and is used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of the chemical components and molecules of…
