RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY &#8211; AN OVERVIEW<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Raman spectroscopy is a characterization technique concerning the irradiation of a sample with a light source and the analysis of its scattered light, in particular those photons that are scattered in-elastically (elastic scattering is known as Rayleigh scattering). The photons that suffer inelastic scattering interact with the matter either by gaining or loosing energy in the form of phonons. The portion of photons with a resulting energy lower than the incident beam constitute the Stokes radiation, while those photons that gain energy are part of the Anti-Stokes radiation. The possible elastic and inelastic scattering transitions are illustrated in the upper part of Fig. 1.1. Both, Stokes and Anti-Stokes, transitions have different probabilities. The latter is quite raw, but the signal can be enhanced via coherent excitation.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, it is the frequency shift (expressed in wavenumbers, generally in units of cm<sup>\u22121<\/sup>) what is measured in Raman spectroscopy, and its value is independent from the excitation wavelength&nbsp;<em><span lang=\"el\" title=\"Greek language text\">\u03bb<\/span><\/em><sub><em>i<\/em>n<\/sub>. However, in practice there are several factors that make one or another excitation wavelength more or less appropriate, including the sample itself.<\/p>\n<p>In principle, Stokes and Anti-Stokes radiation can be analyzed in order to measure the Raman shift. However, Stokes shows inherently a higher intensity since the relative thermal population of energy levels are defined by the Boltzmann factor:<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/testwebc3.com.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/formula-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17470\" width=\"226\" height=\"63\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/testwebc3.com.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Raman_spectroscopy-transitions.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17445\" width=\"350\" height=\"279\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Figure 1.1: Illustration of the energy shift suffered by photons \ninelastically scattered when the incident photon excites the material (a\n phonon is absorbed) or de-excites it (a phonon is released).

It is easy then to understand why although the Raman Effect was \nobserved for the first time in 1928 [4, 5], the development of Raman \nspectroscopy was not possible in a reliable way until the 60\u2019s, when the\n first lasers appeared.

It is important to have in mind \nthe three main elements involved in Raman Spectroscopy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 The analyte<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 The laser source<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 The detector<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The relationship and mutual influence of\n these three elements are illustrated in Fig. 1.2.1.1 The analyte Raman \nSpectroscopy is a material characterization technique that uses the \ninteraction between laser light and the rotational-vibrational \nenergy-level structure of molecular compounds, as a way to provide \nfingerprints of it. Therefore, Raman spectroscopy essentially represents\n a tool to identify certain materials and some relevant aspects of its \nmolecular and lattice structure, although it can be also used for \nquantification. A good example of the application of Raman Spectroscopy \nis the identification of solid carbon materials, which show distinctive \nspectroscopic features in Raman scattering depending on whether the \natoms are arranged to form diamond, graphite, amorphous carbon or even \nfullerenes, carbon nanotubes or graphene. The material under \ncharacterization can be either in solid, liquid or gaseous state, \nalthough for obvious reasons, the gaseous samples are not easily \ndetected with conventional techniques. However, there are several \nRaman-based techniques that are able to obtain an enhanced scattering \nresponse when applying complementary strategies. This is the case of \nSurface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS), where the sample is placed \nover a novel metal\u2013coated substrate (like silver or gold). This way, the\n signal detected can be amplified by several orders of magnitude, \nallowing even single-molecule detection if the metal layer is \nnanostructured [3, 6, 8]. Another well established technique consists of\n irradiating the sample at a wavelength close to one of its electronic \ntransitions, leading to a truly photon absorption (in Raman scattering \nthe incident photon is not really absorbed by the sample) and a \nsubsequent highly enhanced Raman response. This is called Resonance \nRaman (RR) spectroscopy [6, 7]. Also worth to mentioned is Coherent \nAnti-Stokes Raman Spectroscopy (CARS), which is based on third-order \nsusceptibilities. In order to get a significant signal, high laser \nintensities are required to ensure a two-photon absorption. In the \nliterature can be found some more signal enhancement techniques \nlike\u2014among others\u2014Coherent Stokes Raman Spectroscopy (CSRS), \nPhoto-Acoustic Raman Spectroscopy (PARS) or Stimulated Raman Gain \nSpectroscopy (SRGS) [9].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1.2 The laser source<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>As explained above, due to the low \nquantum efficiency of Raman scattering, there are two conditions for a \nproper light source to promote observable Raman scattered photons. One \nis high brightness <em>Br<\/em> (see Eq.1.2)\u2014so laser is obviously the \nbest choice\u2014, and the other is an as low as possible wavelength (see Eq.\n 1.3). UV and visible lasers in the NUV-blue-green region are a good \noption for inorganic compounds [7]. But when it comes to organic matter \nand biological samples, many compounds show a strong fluorescence in the\n visible region when irradiated with these wavelengths. Therefore, the \nRaman signal can be easily \u201cburied\u201d under an intense, broad fluorescent \nemission background (and noise). A quick path to avoid this is shifting \nthe incident wavelength of choice out of the visible and NUV region \ntowards the MUV or the NIR, but then we must consider other aspects like\n the influence of the detector. Usually, the range of Raman shift that \ngoes from 100 cm<sup>\u22121<\/sup> up to 4000 cm<sup>\u22121<\/sup> covers almost \nthe entire set of Raman-active species [7, 9]. However, when we \ntranslate this range into nanometers, the observable range turns to be \nonly a 26nm wide spectral window if&nbsp;<em>\u03bb<sub>in<\/sub><\/em>\n = 248 nm, which implies a big challenge from the grating resolution and\n detector perspectives (UV-enhanced silicon detectors are a solution, \nbut sensitivity is still low). At the other extreme, if&nbsp;<em>\u03bb<sub>in<\/sub><\/em>\n = 1064 nm, the window of observation is about 700 nm, which means that \ngermanium or InGaAs detectors are necessary. The relation between the \nexcitation wavelength and the width of the Raman spectrum is<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/testwebc3.com.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Raman_spectroscopy-polular-excitations.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17443\" width=\"440\" height=\"201\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Figure 1.3: Popular Raman excitation\n laser lines and their corresponding spectral observation window for the\n Raman scattering (Stokes radiation).

Additionally, relative spectral response of \ntraditional detector technologies are superimposed to illustrate the \nlink between laser source and detector.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>shown in Fig. 1.3. Moreover, MUV wavelengths can induce unwanted \nchanges in many samples (ionization, polymerization or bond-breaking \ntransitions) [6].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1.3 The detector<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>CCD cameras with Si-based detectors \nshows an excellent sensitivity specially in the red-NIR region, so the \noptimum combination seems to be a laser source in the range 400 \u2212 550nm \nwith a regular room temperature CCD camera.

This level of purity \nis usually acceptable at 1 \u2212 2nm around the main peak, although this \ndistance gets reduced as Raman shift goes into the sub \u2212 100 cm<sup>\u22121<\/sup> level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Frequency stability: Since the \nacquisition time is usually in the order of seconds or tens of seconds, \nit is important to keep the excitation wavelength still enough (&lt; \n10pm drift over time and operation temperature).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Output power stability: Typical power \nrange goes from 10 to 1000mW, depending on the analyte and the \nexcitation wavelength as mentioned above. The power stability is \nimportant mainly for quantification purposes and it is linked to the \nintegration time necessary to obtain a spectrum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Isolation against optical feed-back: \nIn the particular case of confocal microscopy configurations \n(over-coupled excitation and backscattered beams), even a small portion \nof light backscattered into the laser source can cause power \ninstabilitiesor even laser degradation.

In the past decades, since the food \nindustry is more profit driven and the globalization of the marked is \nprogressing, the consumers are more and more concerned about the food \nquality in mass production [10]. These concerns are based on real \nevidences, which proof a link between harmful food and health diseases. \nSome of them are analyzed and named by [12, 13]. The connection between \nhealth and food quality works in both directions, harmful food can cause\n diseases and healthy food can improve mental and physical body strength\n [10, 11]. These examples can be taken as motivation to ensure high \nquality food products. A reliable quality control can\u2014thanks to Raman \nspectroscopy (especially SERS) as well as other spectroscopy \nmethods\u2014easily be implemented into the production process. An overview \nconcerning food safety and quality control can be found in [14, 16] and \n[15] describes, for instance, how pesticides on fruit surfaces can be \ndetected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/testwebc3.com.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/laser-diode-module-S-Series.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17365\" width=\"199\" height=\"99\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Figure 2.1: Picture of the fiber coupled version of the S-series \npackage.
