Three different chemical compositions of total paraffin, total naphthene, total aromatic content in naphtha have been successfully analyzed using FT-Raman spectroscopy. Partial least squares (PLS) regression has been utilized to develop calibration models for each composition from Raman spectral bands. The PLS calibration results showed Blood correlation with those of gas chromatography (GC). Using PLS regression, the spectral information related to each composition has been successfully extracted from highly overlapped Raman spectra of naphtha.

This study aims to find a correlation between XRD and Raman result of the activated carbon fibers as a function of its activation degrees. La of the isotropic carbon fiber prepared by oxidation in carbon dioxide gas have been observed using laser Raman spectroscopy. The basic structural parameters of the fibers were evaluated by XRD as well, and compared with Raman result. The La of the carbon fibers were measured to be 25.5 ${\AA}$ from Raman analysis and 23.6 ${\AA}$ from XRD analysis. La of the ACFs were 23.6 ${\AA}$ and 20.4 ${\AA}$, respectively, representing less ordered through activation process. It seems that the $I_D/I_G$ of Raman spectra were related to crystallite size(La). Raman spectroscopy has demonstrated its unique ability to detect structural changes during the activation of the fibers. There was good correlation between the La value obtained from Raman and XRD.

We have developed a new femtosecond probe technique by using stimulated Raman spectroscopy. The cross phase modulation in femtosecond time scale associated with off-resonant interaction was shown to be eliminated by integrating the transient gain/loss signal over the time delay between the Raman pump pulse and the continuum pulse. The stimulated Raman gain of neat cyclohexane was obtained to demonstrate the feasibility of the technique. Spectral and temporal widths of stimulated Raman spectra were controlled by using a narrow band pass filter. Femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy was proposed as a highly useful probe in time-resolved vibrational spectroscopy.

This paper proposes a method in which classes are grouped as a hierarchical tree structure for the effective classification of the Raman spectra. As experimental data, the Raman spectra of 28 chemical compounds were obtained, and pre-treated with noise removal and normalization. The spectra that induced a classification error were grouped into the same class and the hierarchical structure class was composed. Each high and low class was classified using a PCA-MAP method. According to the experimental results, the classification of 100% was achieved with 2.7 features on average when the proposed method was applied. Considering that the same classification rates were achieved with 6 features using the conventional method, the proposed method was found to be much better than the conventional one in terms of the total computational complexity and practical application.

$KTP(KTiOPO_4)$ single crystals have been hydrothermally grown in KOH solutions. Properties and Raman spectra of grown crystal were investigated. The most effective solvents for the crystal growth of KTP were KOH and KF solutions. In this study, the properties of KTP single crystals grown hydrothermally at $500^{\circ}C$ in 9 m KOH solution were measured. The following results were obtained : lattice parameters ; a=1.281 nm and c=1.058 nm, density ; $2.94 g/cm^3$, Vickers hardness ; $562kg/cm^2$, refractive indices ; $n_e=1.740$ and $n_e= 1.747.$ And Raman spectra of hydrothermal growth KTP single crystal have been investigated at room temperature under atmospheric pressure. As a result, the $A_1$ modes agree very well with KTP single crystal of high temperatures solution growth but the behavior of $B_2$ modes were slightly different.

The resonance Raman spectra of trans-polyacetylene films doped heavily with electron donor (Na) and acceptor (HClO4) have been measured with excitation wavelengths between 488- and 1320-nm, and the relationships between the Raman excitation photon energies (2.54-0.94 eV) and its wavenumbers were discussed. We found the linear dependence of the Raman shifts with the exchanges of excitation photon energies. In particular, the Raman wavenumbers in the C=C stretching $(V_1$ band) showed a dramatic decrease with the increase in Raman excitation photon energies. In the case of acceptor doping, its change is larger than that of donor doping. The observed wavenumber (1255-1267 $cm^{-1}$) of the $V_2$ band (CC stretch) of Na-doped form is lower than that of the corresponding band (1290-1292 $cm^{-1}$) of its pristine trans-polyacetylene, whereas the contrary is the case for the HClO4 doped form (1295-1300 $cm^{-1}$). The origin of doping-induced Raman bands is discussed in terms of negative and positive polarons.

The structure of species formed in $NbCI_5-I-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium$ chloride (EMIC) room-temperature molten salt (RTMS) was examined with the Raman spectroscopic measurement and ab initio molecular orbital calculation. The equilibrium structures of $NbCl_5,\;NbCl_6^-,\;Nb_2CI_{10},\;Nb_2CI_{11}^-,\;Nb_3CI_6^-,\;NbCI_6^--EMI^+\;(in\;which\;NbCI_6^-$ anion approaches $EMI^+$ cation with strong interaction) and $Nb_2CI_{11}^--EMI^+$ were obtained with the HF/LANL2DZ level of calculation. The harmonic frequencies at each equilibrium structure were compared with Raman spectra. The harmonic frequencies of $NbCI_6^--EMI^+,\; Nb_2CI_{11}^--EMI^+,\;and\;Nb_2CI_{10}$ were in good agreement with the Raman spectra of RTMS melts. In the $NbCI_5-EMIC RTMS$, the main species were $NbCI_6^-\;and\;EMI^+$. In the $NbCl_5-EMIC$ RTMS added $NbCl_5\;over\;50mol\%$, small amount of $Nb_2CI_{11}^-\;and\; Nb_2CI_{10}$ were also formed. The structures of anions and cation in the RTMS distorted from free ions with Coulomb force.

Raman microspectroscopy is a promising tool for microbial analysis at single cell level since it can rapidly measure the cell materials including lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins by measuring the inelastic scattering of a molecule irradiated by monochromatic lights. Using Raman spectra provides high specificity and sensitivity in classification of bacteria at the strain level. In addition, a Raman approach coupled with stabled isotope such as $^{13}C$ and $^2H$ is able to detect and quantify general metabolic activity at single cell level. After bacterial detection process by Raman microspectroscopy, interested unculturable cell sorting and single cell genomics can be accomplished by combination with optical tweezer and microfluidic devices. In this review, the characteristics and applications of Raman microspectroscopy were reviewed and summarized in order to provide a better understanding of microbial analysis using Raman spectroscopy.

In this study, the experiments for surface enhancement of silver mirror substrates were done, where we checked the characteristics of silver surface made by Tollen's method. The surface enhancement of Methyl orange was analyzed by silver surfaces. We observed the Surface Enhanced Raman Spectra of Methyl orange. The assignments of the vibrational bands shown in SERS spectra are given based on both literature and the semi-empirical calculations at the PM3 methods. We deduced that the adsorption orientation of Methyl orange was little tilted parallel to the silver surfaces by using of the surface selection rules.

A novel technique for determining the oxygen tracer diffusion coefficients in oxides was developed. After the 16O-18O solid-gas exchange reactions between 16O in the oxides and 18O in the ambient gas, Raman spectra of the cross sections of oxide samples were measured in a spatial resolution of 5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. From thus obtained Raman spectra, depth profiles of 18O concentration in the oxide samples were calculated. The oxygen tracer diffusion coefficients and the surface exchange coefficients were determined under the assumptions that samples are semi-infinite slab and that the surface exchange reactionsare not negligible. The oxygen tracer diffusion coefficient of 2.8 mol% Y2O3-containing tetragonal ZrO2 polycrystals, 8 mol% Y2O3-containing ZrO2 polycrystals, and 10 mol% Y2O3-containing cubic ZrO2 single crystals (along the a axis) are as follows.
