Overview

The Raman microscope is an optical microscope through which an monochromatic laser source is directed at a sample. The sample absorbs energy and scatters the light at a different wavelength which is then read with a CCD camera.

Energy level diagram showing the states involved in Raman signal. The line thickness is roughly proportional to the signal strength from the different transitions.
