Over the last few years carbon nano materials have been the focus of many investigations due to their unique electronic, mechanical, and chemical, properties. These materials are being investigated as routes towards more efficient batteries, stronger lighter polymer composites, and faster electronics, to name a few. However, it is necessary to solve several challenges regarding quality uniformity and scalability before these applications are fully realized. Raman imaging microscopy offers a means to address these challenges. This presentation will highlight the Thermo Scientific DXRxi Raman imaging microscope and its application to the characterization of carbon nano materials. Specific examples will be discussed that demonstrate the enhanced speed, intuitive operation, and the simultaneous data acquisition/data analysis capabilities of this new Raman imaging microscope. See how highly detailed Raman chemical images gives comprehensive insight into the nature of carbon nano materials.
