Forensic Analysis of Paint Using Raman Microscopy
December 4th 2024Raman microscopy is a powerful technique for identifying the source of forensic samples, such as paint traces. As a non-destructive method of forensic analysis, evidence samples are not compromised during investigation. During forensic investigations, evidence samples are often compared to a database of known specimens for identification. In this Application Note, we show how the RM5 can be used to differentiate between different samples and how spectral library searching allows for the matching of paint samples within seconds.
