Raman spectroscopy is an established analytical technique for geological samples. It not only provides a fast and efficient way of identifying specific materials, but it also provides considerable information for:
- Molecular structure and chemical environments
- Identifying various minerals using ever expanding databases
- Evaluating phases of the same or very similar chemical composition
- Characterizing inclusions within samples without the need to expose the inclusions
- Encompasses different solid, liquid or gaseous phases within the inclusion
- Analyzing archived samples that have been mounted under glass cover slips
- Residual pressure and stress within a sample by looking at shifts in the Raman peaks.
Application note: An Exceptional View of Geological Materials with Raman Imaging
Raman imaging is a useful tool where large areas of the sample can be analyzed and still preserve the spatial information. Covering larger areas of the sample provides confidence knowing that important areas are not being missed. The vast amounts of data generated by Raman imaging gives a more statistically relevant analysis of the sample.
Application note: Visualizing Content Distribution in Tablets with Raman Imaging
There are many types of pharmaceutical formulations with analytical problems such as identifying, verifying and evaluating the component distribution, chemical and molecular structure. This application note focuses on the rapid evaluation of whole tablets using Raman imaging to identify and evaluate the spatial distribution of the tablet components in a fast and efficient manner.
Application note: The Analysis of Low Dose Tablets and Polymorphs Using Raman Imaging
Raman spectroscopy can distinguish between polymorphs, which are the same chemical compounds occurring in different crystalline forms. Polymorph identification is an important analysis step as these variations can affect how the drug is delivered and its therapeutic effectiveness. This application note focuses on using Raman imaging for evaluating the spatial distribution of active pharmaceutical ingredients in lower concentration tablets including the differentiation of polymorphs.
Application note: Product Quality Control of a HME Co-Extrudate Using a Raman Imaging Microscope
Hot melt extrusion production is an attractive alternative to traditional methods for pharmaceutical products. Raman spectroscopy can identify and verify the presence of different components and contaminants in various formulations.
The needs of the Li-ion battery customers can be segmented into in situ and ex situ modes of analysis. In situ analysis allows researchers to follow changes in a battery cell during its charge and discharge cycles. Recent improvements in Raman sensitivity enable these changes to be imaged on a dynamic time scale. The same techniques offer significant improvements for ex situ analysis of battery components by providing more thorough sampling than traditional single point measurements. These application notes present examples showing the advantages of both modes of analysis for Li-ion electrodes.
