Combination of DVS with Raman Spectroscopy



The Ideal Complement to SPS Sorption Analysis Systems
Combining water vapor sorption measurements with Raman spectroscopy is the ideal addition to SPS sorption systems, integrating a second analytical method. Raman spectroscopy, together with DVS, is a powerful tool for investigating moisture-induced structural changes such as hydrate formation or crystallization of amorphous materials.
The combination of the multi-sample capability of an SPS sorption system with Raman spectroscopy enables the evaluation of sorption curves in conjunction with the corresponding Raman spectra, along with the ability to measure and compare multiple samples simultaneously. This opens up new and exciting possibilities for solid-state analysis. Compatible SPS instruments can be equipped or retrofitted for the integration of a Raman spectrometer.

Software Integration
The Raman spectrometer is controlled via the SPS software. Through a dedicated menu, the user can define from which samples Raman spectra should be recorded. The timing and frequency of the measurements can also be configured. For example, measurements can be scheduled at fixed time intervals or triggered each time a sample meets the equilibrium criterion.
