For decades, researchers have used these signatures, known as Raman spectra, as chemical fingerprints to characterize cells. Unlike flow cytometry, microfluidics, and other cell sorting methods, ...

In contrast, single-cell Raman spectroscopy has emerged as a promising technology for rapid pathogen identification. This method characterizes the phenotypic features of microorganisms and offers ...

"Raman microscopy adds a complementary option to the imaging toolbox," says senior author Katsumasa Fujita. "The fact that it not only provides cell images, but also information about the ...

A new study demonstrates the potential of Raman spectroscopy to improve surgical outcomes for pediatric patients with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type II, a leading cause of drug-resistant epilepsy ...

The Raman Microspectroscopy Laboratory is a core research facility housed in the Department of Geological Sciences for fast, non-destructive characterization and chemical imaging of diverse materials ...

A solar cell is made of two types of semiconductors, called p-type and n-type silicon. The p-type silicon is produced by adding atoms—such as boron or gallium—that have one less electron in their ...

Unlike erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs), which boost wavelengths in the 1530-1610 nm range, a Raman amplifier can increase the signal strength of any wavelength by pumping at 13THz more than ...

Compared with other ablative therapies, stereotactic body radiotherapy might offer a ‘particularly advantageous option’ for ...
