A pharma lab manager survey indicated that data integrity is a top concern....
A diffraction grating is used to separate polychromatic light into its constituent wavelengths. In a Raman spectrometer diffraction gratings are used to separate the constituent wavelengths of the collected Raman scatter onto different pixels of the CCD camera for detection. All Raman spectrometers will require at least one diffraction grating and will frequently be configured to contain more than one to allow the user optimum grating selection for their samples and excitation wavelength(s).
The call for submissions aims at raising the visibility of research results that have been achieved with Analytik Jena equipment and technology – especially with a view to its potential for applications and new possibilities in the field.
