Raman Spectroscopy and Deep Learning Enhances Blended Vegetable Oil Authentication
December 10th 2024Researchers at Yanshan University have developed a groundbreaking method combining Raman spectroscopy and deep learning models to accurately identify and quantify components in blended vegetable oils.
Nanometer-Scale Studies Using Tip Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy
February 8th 2013Volker Deckert, the winner of the 2013 Charles Mann Award, is advancing the use of tip enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) to push the lateral resolution of vibrational spectroscopy well below the Abbe limit, to achieve single-molecule sensitivity. Because the tip can be moved with sub-nanometer precision, structural information with unmatched spatial resolution can be achieved without the need of specific labels.
