Raman spectroscopy on XPS Nexsa

Raman spectroscopy is a technique that is growing immensely popular. Since the XPS Nexsa is the first instrument at DTU Nanolab with a Raman capability, it is therefore likely that it will attract users with a demand for Raman spectroscopy. It is, however, not our intention that the Nexsa be used as a stand-alone Raman spectrometer. Such demands must be satisfied by a dedicated Raman spectrometer elsewhere. If you cannot come with a reason why it would be a good idea to have Raman spectroscopy in conjunction (or even coincident in the same spot on the sample) with any of the other techniques offered by the Nexsa, you will not be authorized to use the instrument.
