Raman Spectroscopy: Overview
A vibrational spectroscopy
- IR and Raman are the most common vibrational spectroscopies for
assessing molecular motion and fingerprinting species
- Based on inelastic scattering of a monochromatic excitation source
- Routine energy range: 200 - 4000 cm1

Fluorescence problems!
Maybe try photobleaching
as next option.
