Characterizing Graphene with Raman Spectroscopy
17 Nov 2014Raman spectroscopy is a great tool for the characterization of graphene. Few techniques will provide as much information about the structure of graphene samples as Raman spectroscopy and any lab doing graphene characterization without Raman would be at a significant disadvantage. In this application note, the Thermo Scientific DXR Raman microscope is used for graphene characterization to provide a high level of stability, control and sensitivity needed to produce confident results.
