Technical Support for the Laser Raman Microprobe Laboratories at Washington University

该奖项为圣路易斯华盛顿大学地球与行星科学系负责操作和维护激光拉曼微探针实验室的技术人员提供部分资金支持。拉曼微探针光谱学是一种非破坏性技术，通过显微镜将激光束引入样品中。固体，液体和气相可以快速识别和结构表征。首席研究员和她在华盛顿大学的同事们在各种研究项目中使用拉曼光谱，旨在了解碳、氧、氢和氮等元素在变质岩和火山岩形成中的作用。＊＊＊

9417677 Pasteris This award provides partial funding for the support of a technician in charge of operations and maintenance of the laser Raman microprobe laboratories in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Washington University, St. Louis. Raman microprobe spectroscopy is a non-destructive technique in which a laser beam is introduced into a sample via a microscope. Solid, liquid, and gaseous phases can be identified rapidly and structurally characterized. The Principal Investigator and her colleagues at Washington University use Raman spectroscopy in a variety of research projects aimed at understanding the role of elements such as carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen in the formation of metamorphic and volcanic rocks. ***
