SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the need for Raman active dyes specifically for material chemistry applications. The user seeks affordable and easy-to-use options, noting that existing literature primarily addresses biological applications such as proteins and DNA. Azo dyes are mentioned as a starting point, and a reference to the Alexa Fluor Dye Series from Invitrogen is provided for further exploration. The conversation emphasizes the gap in available resources for material chemistry compared to biological contexts.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Raman spectroscopy principles
  • Familiarity with dye chemistry, particularly Azo dyes
  • Knowledge of material chemistry applications
  • Basic research skills to explore dye databases and literature
NEXT STEPS
  • Research additional Raman active dyes suitable for material chemistry
  • Explore the properties and applications of Azo dyes in detail
  • Investigate the Alexa Fluor Dye Series for relevant options
  • Review recent publications on Raman spectroscopy applications in materials science
USEFUL FOR

Material chemists, researchers in spectroscopy, and anyone involved in dye chemistry looking to expand their knowledge of Raman active dyes for non-biological applications.

Hi everyone,

I have a project that will require me to use quite more Raman active dyes. I found a couple of dyes to start with but I couldn't find more that relate to material chemistry. Most of the literate that I read relates to proteins or DNA. Can you please think of some dyes that are easy to use, not that expensive?

Thanks!
