K. Witke et al., STRUCTURAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THIN-FILMS FORMED OR CHANGED ON MATERIALS BY MICRO-RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY, Fresenius' journal of analytical chemistry, 361(6-7), 1998, pp. 619-620
Micro Raman spectroscopy is shown as a useful method of high spatial r
esolution in characterization of thin films on or in materials formed
or changed as a result of external influences. Identification of black
films in the glaze of porcelain, of impairing deposits on components
of an ICP mass spectrometer and of tribologically stressed contacts of
ADLC films or (Ti,Mo)(C,N) ceramics, respectively, are examples for a
pplication.
