The method makes use of the strongly enhanced electric field close to a sharp metal tip under laser illumination and relies on the detection of two-photon excited fluorescence." 04:45 < fenn> High-Resolution Near-Field Raman Microscopy 04:46 < fenn> A near-field Raman image is established by raster 04:46 < fenn> scanning the sample and continuously recording the scattered 04:46 < fenn> Raman signal. Sharp silver tips with a radius of 04:46 < fenn> 10–15 nm are produced by electrochemical etching followed 04:46 < fenn> by focused ion beam 04:46 < fenn> milling 04:47 < fenn> i wonder if those tips could be made of cut tungsten wire instead, if it just has to be relatively pointy 04:48 < fenn> raman spectroscopy of single molecules seems pretty useful in general, and the tech involved doesn't seem too crazy 04:48 < fenn> and you also get an image 04:49 < fenn> https://web.archive.org/web/20111230120846/http://web.pdx.edu/~esanchez/Inline_text/Papers/Raman%20nanotube%20imaging.pdf 04:51 -!- yashgaroth [~ffffffff@2601:5c4:c780:6aa0::bb3b] has joined #hplusroadmap 05:01 < fenn> .title https://www.sunneyxielab.org/en_research/crs_microscopy/why/ 05:02 < saxo> Coherent Raman Imaging 05:24 < fenn> documenting the unexpected coincidence here for posterity's sake, please disregard https://web.archive.org/web/20110714133416/http://ricm.museum.com/collections/ardent/ardent.html 06:11 -!- L29Ah [~L29Ah@wikipedia/L29Ah] has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds] 07:18 -!- L29Ah [~L29Ah@wikipedia/L29Ah] has joined #hplusroadmap 09:21 -!- redlegion_ [~x@omghax.redlegion.org] has quit [Quit: ZNC 1.8.2+deb2+b1 - https://znc.in] 10:43 -!- redlegion [~x@omghax.redlegion.org] has joined #hplusroadmap 13:15 -!- flooded [flooded@gateway/vpn/protonvpn/flood/x-43489060] has joined #hplusroadmap 13:15 -!- flooded is now known as _flood 15:27 -!- spaceangel [~spaceange@ip-78-102-216-202.net.upcbroadband.cz] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 16:16 -!- darsie [~darsie@84-113-55-200.cable.dynamic.surfer.at] has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds] 16:50 -!- Guest33sd [~Guest33sd@185.200.215.214] has joined #hplusroadmap 16:53 -!- Guest33sd [~Guest33sd@185.200.215.214] has quit [Client Quit] 19:17 -!- yashgaroth [~ffffffff@2601:5c4:c780:6aa0::bb3b] has quit [Quit: Leaving] 21:35 -!- Netsplit *.net <-> *.split quits: mirage335, soundand1ury 21:36 -!- soundandfury [~soundandf@user/soundandfury] has joined #hplusroadmap 22:24 -!- mirage335 [~mirage335@64.79.52.86] has joined #hplusroadmap 22:27 -!- mirage33568 [~mirage335@2a01:4f8:120:2361::1] has joined #hplusroadmap 22:27 -!- mirage335 [~mirage335@64.79.52.86] has quit [Client Quit] 22:28 -!- mirage33568 [~mirage335@2a01:4f8:120:2361::1] has quit [Client Quit] 22:28 -!- mirage335 [~mirage335@64.79.52.86] has joined #hplusroadmap 22:57 -!- darsie [~darsie@84-113-55-200.cable.dynamic.surfer.at] has joined #hplusroadmap --- Log closed Mon Mar 28 00:00:38 2022
