Raman spectroscopy is a non-destructive and highly accurate method for identifying molecular structures that operates based on light scattering (Raman scattering). In this method, the sample is excited with a laser and the energy changes of the scattered photons provide valuable information about molecular vibrations, chemical bonds and the structure of materials.
This method has a wide range of applications in materials science, chemistry, physics, biology and nanotechnology. Among the fields of use are the identification of graphene and two-dimensional materials, the investigation of polymers, the study of nanostructures and the analysis of pharmaceutical compounds and even sensitive biological samples and in tissue engineering, drug delivery and biosensors.
