The great Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman was born on 7 November 1888, a day like today, and was awarded the 1930 Nobel Prize in Physics.
Among other things, the Raman effect is used to analyse different types of material.

I am still waiting for a letter from Stockholm but in the mean time here’s an old photo I unearthed of my better half 30 years ago holding the Nobel medal of CV Raman! The 1930 prize winner for physics for his work on light scattering and the Raman effect.

ICYMI....This portable Raman analyzer detects gas leaks from a distance: https://bit.ly/485GxqO

The tech uses a robust enhancement mechanism, where blue pump light and Raman scattered light from hydrogen are reflected multiple times in a multipass cavity to detect very low H2 concentrations. 💡 ⚛️ 🧪

Ever seen a pumpkin under a microscope? 🎃🔬

This Halloween, Raymond Wightman & Daniel Sparrow used @slcuplants.bsky.social’s powerful imaging tools to reveal:
🔬 Skin detail with the #Keyence microscope
💡 Beta-carotene via #Raman spectroscopy
❄️ Flash-frozen oval cells via cryo-SEM

#HappyHalloween
Composite image showing a pumpkin used for microscopy. A photo of the whole pumpkin with a small 2mm square cut out indicates the area imaged. The main background shows the orange flesh captured with a Keyence digital microscope, with the darker ridge on the left marking the skin. An inset black graph displays the Raman spectrum with strong beta-carotene peaks, explaining the pumpkin’s orange colour. Another inset image from cryo-SEM reveals tightly packed oval cells that make up the pumpkin’s fleshy interior. Images by Raymond Wightman and Daniel Sparrow. Pumpkin on the Raman microscope Flash frozen pumpkin in the vacuum chamber of the cryo-SEM before undergoing cryofracture and then coating in gold/palladium. It was then passed in to the cryo-SEM itself for imaging.
