Quick Introduction

What is Raman Spectroscopy?

In simple terms, a Raman spectrometer uses a laser to focus light onto a small spot on a sample. The photons excite molecular vibrations that scatter the light and uniquely shift its wavelength – known as Raman scattering. By filtering out the Rayleigh-scattered, original laser light, we isolate and capture the desired signal, guide it into a spectrometer and plot it as a unique spectrum.

Rayleigh Scattering

  • so-called inelastic scattering
  • affects about 1 in 10 million photons
  • incident light changes direction and energy
  • the molecule gains or loses energy = wavelength shift

Raman Scattering

  • so-called elastic scattering
  • the most common, visible everyday scattering
  • incident light only changes direction
  • wavelength stays the same

Fluorescence

  • e.g., the glow under UV
  • incident light is absorbed and re-emitted
  • much stronger than the Raman signal
  • emitted in random directions
