Portable Sequentially Shifted Excitation Raman Spectroscopy to Examine Historic Powders Enclosed in Glass Vials

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Raman spectroscopy (RS) is a powerful non-invasive tool for the characterization of materials. However, the fluorescence effect often hampers the detectability of the relatively weak vibrational Raman signal. Several approaches were exploited to overcome
