Benefits of Library and Identification Method Transfer Capabilities Using Hand-held Raman Spectrometers

With the increased use of Raman spectroscopy for identification and verification, the demand for commercial libraries, transferrable libraries and identification methods for hand-held Raman spectrometers has increased. Successful library transfer has been demonstrated with commercial libraries, and for Raman spectra collected on different instruments. This white paper describes how, on the NanoRam hand-held Raman spectrometer (B&W Tek, Newark, DE) both identification methods and libraries can be transferred from one unit to another.
