Abstract
Raman spectroscopy using non-invasive near-infrared (NIR) laser light has b ecome a powerful tool for the microscopic analysis of organic and biologica l materials. A Raman tweezers microscope (RTM) was developed by combining N IR Raman spectroscopy with the laser trapping technique, which enables us t o expand the scope of single particle studies. Recent results obtained usin g the RTM for single droplets and polymer spheres in a micrometer range are reported. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
