Webinar abstract

Advanced automation and efficient workflows are key features of the Strada® Intelligent Raman Microscope, enabling the collection of large and reliable datasets. Statistically significant Raman data can support decision-making across diverse applications, including pharmaceutical particle characterisation, coating QA/QC, and semiconductor analysis.

In this webinar, we will demonstrate how the Strada system can be used to analyse a range of industrial examples:

  • Particle characterisation in nasal sprays and suspensions
    Morphologically directed Raman spectroscopy (MDRS) and Raman imaging were used to analyse pharmaceutical formulations. The accuracy and speed of particle size distribution (PSD) measurements and chemical identification is compared across both techniques. Our results highlight the advantages and limitations of each approach, and why having both methodologies is crucial.

  • CVD coating verification for metrology and precision manufacturing
    Raman imaging of coated components can provide insight into coating uniformity, phase composition, stress and strain, and sp²/sp³ carbon content. This information complements X-ray fluorescence (XRF) measurements and can form part of a comprehensive industrial QA/QC workflow.

  • Material characterisation and process monitoring of Ga2O3 semiconductors
    Raman spectroscopy is sensitive to polymorphism, defects, stress and strain, crystallinity, and crystal orientation in Ga₂O₃ semiconductor wafers. It can be readily implemented as a fast, non-destructive technique for monitoring material quality and optimising growth and processing conditions throughout semiconductor manufacturing.

Discover how Raman microscopy can be used to characterise pharmaceutical particles, verify coating quality and evaluate semiconductor materials. Register now!


Please note: Our webinar is held on two separate dates, so that you can choose a time that is most suitable for you. Our webinars last for around one hour and include a question-and-answer session with our expert panel. By registering, you will receive an email notifying you of the on-demand webinar when it is available.
