ALVTechnologies Philippines Incorporated, together with our manufacturer Horiba Scientific, would like to invite you to join our webinar on the topic of “History and fundamentals of tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS)“ on October 9, 2025 at 4:00 PM (Philippine time).
TERS gives the vibrational information of a sample with nanometric resolution. Obtaining physico-chemical information with such resolution opens up possibilities to characterize materials at unprecedented levels, which allows research findings unsuspected until recently.
This lecture introduces the fundamentals of TERS through the history of near-field spectroscopic optics. From the great idea of Synge more than 90 years ago to the technical progress of scanning probe microscopy, the history of near-field optics crosses the emerging plasmonics field and the discovery of the amplification of the Raman signal by Richard Van Duyne.
During this lecture, this nanospectroscopic technique for 2D materials and other semiconductors applications will also be introduced.
