SUMMARY
Averaging spectra significantly improves noise reduction in Raman spectroscopy. The discussion confirms that the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) scales with the square root of the integration time, and averaging multiple spectra enhances this effect. This technique is essential for obtaining clearer results in Raman analysis, particularly when dealing with low-intensity signals.
