THz-Raman® Spectroscopy Systems

Coherent’s patented THz-Raman Spectroscopy Systems extend the range of traditional Raman spectroscopy into the terahertz/low-wave number, exploring the same range of energy transitions as terahertz spectroscopy – without limiting the ability to measure the fingerprint region. This region reveals a new “Structural Fingerprint” to complement the traditional “Chemical Fingerprint” of Raman, enabling simultaneous analysis of both molecular structure and chemical composition in one instrument for advanced materials characterization.

Advanced Materials Characterization

Clear real-time differentiation of structural attributes of the material enables clear identification and analysis of polymorphs, raw material sources, defects and contamination, crystal formation, phase monitoring, and synthesis methods. Real-time, simultaneous measurement of both composition and structural analysis eliminates the need for multiple samples and instruments, lowering capital, training, and maintenance costs.

The THz-Raman spectral region covers both Stokes and anti-Stokes signals from ±5 cm-1to 200 cm-1, (or 150 GHz to 6 THz), which contain important structural information about the molecule or crystal lattice. This region reveals a new “structural fingerprint” to complement the traditional chemical fingerprint of Raman, enabling simultaneous analysis of both molecular structure and chemical composition in one instrument for advanced materials characterization.
