Due to its weak nature, for a long-time Raman spectroscopy was limited to only study of molecular interactions, but with the advancement in technology such as highly compact and stable lasers, high quantum efficiency and low noise detectors and so on, Raman spectroscopy today finds itself in wide applications ranging from study on biological cells to space applications. In the first work we aim to develop a 3D Raman imaging system that can give both chemical and morphological information of the concealed object using Universal Multiple Angle Raman spectroscopy (UMARS). Spatial offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS) is a widely used Raman technique and they can obtain Raman signals upto depth of 5 cm UR - https://etd.iisc.ac.in/handle/2005/6035 ER -
