Raman spectroscopy is a molecular spectroscopic technique that utilizes the interaction of light with matter to gain insight into a material's make up or characteristics, like FTIR. The information provided by Raman spectroscopy results from a light scattering process, whereas IR spectroscopy relies on absorption of light. Raman spectroscopy yields information about intra- and inter-molecular vibrations and can provide additional understanding about a reaction. Both Raman and FTIR spectroscopy provide a spectrum characteristic of the specific vibrations of a molecule ("molecular fingerprint') and are valuable for identifying a substance. However, Raman spectroscopy can give additional information about lower frequency modes, and vibrations that give insight into crystal lattice and molecular backbone structure.
Inline Raman spectroscopy is used to monitor crystallization processes and reveal reaction mechanisms and kinetics. Combined with analysis tools, this data enables informed reaction understanding and optimization.
The Raman Spectroscopy Principle
When light interacts with molecules in a gas, liquid, or solid, the vast majority of the photons are dispersed or scattered at the same energy as the incident photons. This is described as elastic scattering, or Rayleigh scattering. A small number of these photons, approximately 1 photon in 10 million will scatter at a different frequency than the incident photon. This process is called inelastic scattering, or the Raman effect, named after Sir C.V. Raman who discovered this and was awarded the 1930 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work. Since that time, Raman has been utilized for a vast array of applications from medical diagnostics to material science and reaction analysis. Raman allows the user to collect the vibrational signature of a molecule, giving insight into how it is put together, as well as how it interacts with other molecules around it.
Raman Scattering
Raman Scattering Process
The Raman Scattering Process, as described by quantum mechanics, is when photons interact with a molecule, the molecule may be advanced to a higher energy, virtual state. From this higher energy state, there may be a few different outcomes. One such outcome would be that the molecule relaxes to a vibrational energy level that is different than that of its beginning state producing a photon of different energy. The difference between the energy of the incident photon and the energy of the scattered photon is the called the Raman shift.
When the change in energy of the scattered photon is less than the incident photon, the scattering is called Stokes scatter. Some molecules may begin in a vibrationally excited state and when they are advanced to the higher energy virtual state, they may relax to a final energy state that is lower than that of the initial excited state. This scattering is called anti-Stokes.
Raman Spectroscopy Basics
How Does Raman Spectroscopy Work?
Unlike FTIR Spectroscopy that looks at changes in dipole moments, Raman looks at changes in a molecular bonds polarizability. Interaction of light with a molecule can induce a deformation of its electron cloud. This deformation is known as a change in polarizability. Molecular bonds have specific energy transitions in which a change of polarizability occurs, giving rise to Raman active modes. As an example, molecules that contain bonds between homonuclear atoms such as carbon-carbon, sulfur-sulfur, and nitrogen-nitrogen bonds undergo a change in polarizability when photons interact with them. These are examples of bonds that give rise to Raman active spectral bands, but would not be seen or difficult to see in FTIR.
Because Raman is an inherently weak effect, the optical components of a Raman Spectrometer must be well matched and optimized. Also, since organic molecules may have a greater tendency to fluoresce when shorter wavelength radiation is used, longer wavelength monochromatic excitation sources, such as solid state laser diodes that produces light at 785 nm, are typically used.
