2008

Raman studies of ostensibly pure congruent, close to stoichiometric and stoichiometric lithium niobate single crystals and single crystals of lithium niobate containing admixture of Gd3+, Y+, and Mg2+ are reported. The authors have revealed weak Raman bands anomalously narrowing at changes of crystal composition disordering the cation sublattice and discuss the results with regard to evidence of anomalous ordering of structural units of the cation sublattice occurring at disordering of the cation sublattice as a whole.© (2008) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

Investigation by raman spectroscopy of the decomposition process of HKUST-1 upon exposure to air

2016

We report an experimental investigation by Raman spectroscopy of the decomposition process of Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) HKUST-1 upon exposure to air moisture (T=300 K, 70% relative humidity). The data collected here are compared with the indications obtained from a model of the process of decomposition of this material proposed in literature. In agreement with that model, the reported Raman measurements indicate that for exposure times longer than 20 days relevant irreversible processes take place, which are related to the occurrence of the hydrolysis of Cu-O bonds. These processes induce small but detectable variations of the peak positions and intensities of the main Raman bands of th…

Towards combined multispectral, FLIM and Raman imaging for skin diagnostics

2020

To explore challenges for further improvement of diagnostic performance, a project aimed at development of technology for tri-modal skin imaging by combining multispectral, fluorescence lifetime and Raman band imaging was initiated. In this study, each of the mentioned imaging modalities has been preliminary tested and updated. Four different multispectral imaging devices were tested on color standards. Picosecond laser-excited fluorescence lifetime imaging equipment was examined on ex-vivo skin samples. Finally, a new Raman spectroscopy setup with 785 nm laser was launched and tested on cell cultures and ex-vivo skin. Advantages and specific features of the tri-modal skin imaging are discu…

Aging of MCM41, MSU-H and MSU-F mesoporous systems investigated through the Raman spectroscopy

2014

Here we report an experimental investigation, based on the Raman spectroscopy, on the aging of some mesoporous silica based systems. In details, we studied the aging in air of the MCM41, the MSU-H and the MSU-F materials by acquiring the Raman spectra of as received and of mechanically pressed, at 0.2 and 0.45 GPa, powders. Our data evidenced that the starting powders of the MCM41 and of the MSU-H undergo structural modification when they are exposed to the ambient atmosphere, such modification consisting in the decrease of the D2 Raman band (originated by the three member rings). At variance the powders of the MSU-F appear to be stable. Furthermore, by pressing the starting powders to prod…

The infrared and Raman spectra of solid tridehydropeptides : influence of ΔAla and ΔPhe on the spectral profile

2012

Abstract A series of solid tripeptides Boc-Gly-X-Gly-OMe (X = dehydroalanine (ΔAla), dehydrophenylalanine (ΔPhe)) was investigated by Raman scattering and Fourier transform infrared spectra to examine the conformational marker bands of the unsaturated residue. The observed fundamental modes gave us the opportunity to analyze structural features that change due to the substitution of Ala by ΔAla and due to the different spatial arrangement of ΔPhe ( Z and E isomers). In addition, we showed the alteration of the spectral profile when the large size residue (Phe) is introduced into the backbone of the peptide with ΔPhe (in Boc-Gly-Δ (Z) Phe-Phe-OMe). The frequency ranges of interest included t…

Investigation of the Na2O/Ag2O ratio on the synthesis conditions and properties of the 80TeO2–10ZnO–[(10−x)Na2O–xAg2O] glasses

2019

International audience; Properties of the tellurite glasses 80TeO2–10ZnO–[(10−x)Na2O–xAg2O] are investigated as a function of the substitution ratio x between Na2O and Ag2O. One observe that the variation of glass transition temperature decreases monotonously with x and that surface crystallization mechanism is favored. The assignment of the Raman bands and their relation with the underlying glass structure is discussed. While both Na2O and Ag2O oxides act as glass network modifiers, their progressive equimolar substitution does not lead to a meaningful evolution in the structure of the TZ[Na10-xAgx] glass. The refractive index and the cut-off wavelength are found to increase with x. The co…
