Abstract Raman analysis of rock samples containing rare earth elements (REEs) is challenging due to the strong fluorescence, which may mask weaker signal. In this research, time‐gated (TG) has been applied construction mineral distribution map from REE‐bearing rock. With TG Raman, material excited with a short subnanosecond laser pulse, and signal collected within picosecond‐scale time window prior formation fluorescent by means single‐photon avalanche diode array. This allows readout...

Hydrogels, natural and synthetic origin, are actively studied for their use implants payload carriers. These biomaterials delivery systems have enormous potential in basic biomedical research, drug development, long-term of biologics. Nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) hydrogels, both anionic (ANFC) ones, allow loading immediate controlled release via the slow dissolution solid crystals into hydrogel its subsequent release. This property makes NFC originated hydrogels an interesting non-toxic...

The fluorescence background in Raman spectroscopy can be effectively suppressed by using pulsed lasers and time-gated detectors. A recent solution to reduce the high complexity bulkiness of systems is implement detector utilizing time-resolved single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) fabricated complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology. In this study, we investigate effects fluorescence-to-Raman ratio, recording time excitation intensity on quality spectra measured one furthest...
