How to Choose a Raman Filter For Drug ID And Characterization

Precise use of filters gives Raman spectroscopy fantastic utility not only in drug identification and inspection but also the detection of explosives and unknown substances, materials inspection by U.S. Customs and port authorities, and food safety inspection.

Edge Filters for Raman Spectroscopy

Raman spectroscopy probes the molecular vibrational and rotational modes of a material in order to detect and identify the material. Typically, laser light is incident upon the material and the scattered light is measured.

The excitation source (laser line) intensity is often to orders of magnitude greater than the Raman scattered signal. Therefore, edge pass (or notch) filters are required to block the Rayleigh scattered laser light while transmitting the red-wavelength shifted (Stokes) and/or the blue-wavelength shifted (Anti-Stokes) Raman scattered signal.
