(Phys.org) —A team of researchers from several institutions in Texas has found a way to identify compounds from a distance using random Raman lasing. In their paper published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the team reports that they were able to identify several powders using Stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS) from a distance of 400 meters.
