Analysis of seized drugs using portable Raman spectroscopy in an airport environment - a proof of principle study 
The viability of Raman spectroscopy for the rapid identification of illicit substances in their containers in an airport environment has been demonstrated using portable Raman spectrometers. [July 7, 2008]

Raman boost, on reflection 
UK scientists have developed a new approach for enhancing fluorescence and Raman signals recorded from turbid media in a conventional backscattering geometry. The technique results in an enhanced signal and allows the use of shorter acquisition times. [July 1, 2008]

Passive signal enhancement in spatially offset Raman spectroscopy 
Signals in Spatially Offset Raman Spectroscopy (SORS) have been enhanced using a dielectric bandpass filter, leading to the enhancement of both the surface and subsurface Raman layer signal improving the signal-to-noise ratio of Raman spectra from the deep areas of samples. [June 2, 2008]
