Spectrometer
Dispersive
spatial separation of wavelengths
(by diffraction grating)
usually CCD array detector is used
excellent removal of the Rayleigh line
optimal in visible region
Interferometric (FT-Raman)
modulation of spectral components
(due to interference)
the spectrum is recovered by Fourier
transform of the interferogram
uses a point detector
excellent wavelength precision
optimal in NIR region
(and for strongly fluorescing samples)
can combine IR absorption and Raman

Challenges
Presence of fluorescence
- optimize excitation wavelength
Heating/damaging of sample under a
high irradiance (~10 mW/µm2)
- attenuate or defocus laser
- optimize excitation wavelength
Short working distance (~0.2 mm)
of the objective lens
- special LWD objectives available
Strong signal from substrate
- use another substrate
- prepare a thicker layer
- correct for the substrate spectrum

Choosing excitation wavelength
Visible lasers:
strong Raman lines (Raman cross section ∝ 𝜆−4)
may allow measurement of strongly absorbing
(dark) samples
may induce a strong fluorescence background
NIR lasers:
low photon energy cannot excite fluorescence
less effective Raman excitation
more powerful laser beam required, may heat up or
damage the sample

Summary
The Raman effect reveals molecular vibrations in
visible or NIR spectral range
Complementary to IR absorption
a vibration is usually observed only in one of the spectra
technical issues
It is necessary to choose appropriate excitation
wavelength and laser power to
reveal the inherently weak Raman lines
avoid strong background fluorescence
avoid heating/damaging of the sample in the focused
laser beam
