We present a generalized approach to obtain improved Raman intensity profiles from in-depth studies performed by confocal Raman microspectroscopy (CRM) with dry objectives. The approach is based on regularized deconvolution ...

We present a study of the atmospheric depth profile and the dependence with its characteristic parameters. We introduce a new model, named GAMMA, based on a parameterization that allows us to obtain the atmospheric depth ...

In this work, we test simple models proposed to predict two characteristic features when performing depth profiling with dry-optics confocal Raman microspectroscopy (CRM): the decay in the collected intensity and the ...

We compare and analyze different approaches to perform depth profiling of polymer films and coatings by confocal Raman microscopy (CRM). Data were generated using three methodologies: conventional metallurgical objectives, ...

We present a simple approach that avoids the problem of coupling fluid-sample interaction in confocal Raman depth-profiling with immersion objectives. We use a thin protective medium (polyethylene film) that preserves the ...

The morphology and hydrodynamic conditions to which a beach is exposed are important for solving many of the problems faced by coastal management (protection and/or regeneration of the coasts). Monitoring and modelling of ...

The melanins are a class of natural pigments ubiquitous throughout the biosphere. These pigments are gaining significant attention as advanced materials due to their biocompatibility, optical and electrical properties. The ...

A strategy based on the use of a protective coating as a separating medium to prevent sample-coupling fluid direct contact when one performs depth profiling by Confocal Raman microspectroscopy (CRM) with immersion objectives ...
