Difference between Optical tweezers and Raman spectroscopy

Optical tweezers vs. Raman spectroscopy

Optical tweezers (originally called "single-beam gradient force trap") are scientific instruments that use a highly focused laser beam to provide an attractive or repulsive force (typically on the order of piconewtons), depending on the relative refractive index between particle and surrounding medium, to physically hold and move microscopic objects similar to tweezers. Raman spectroscopy (named after Indian physicist Sir C. V. Raman) is a spectroscopic technique used to observe vibrational, rotational, and other low-frequency modes in a system.

Similarities between Optical tweezers and Raman spectroscopy

Optical tweezers and Raman spectroscopy have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Charge-coupled device, Fluorescence, Laser, Lens (optics), Nd:YAG laser, Protein, Rayleigh scattering.

Charge-coupled device

A charge-coupled device (CCD) is a device for the movement of electrical charge, usually from within the device to an area where the charge can be manipulated, for example conversion into a digital value.

Fluorescence

Fluorescence is the emission of light by a substance that has absorbed light or other electromagnetic radiation.

Laser

A laser is a device that emits light through a process of optical amplification based on the stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation.

Lens (optics)

A lens is a transmissive optical device that focuses or disperses a light beam by means of refraction.

Nd:YAG laser

Nd:YAG (neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet; Nd:Y3Al5O12) is a crystal that is used as a lasing medium for solid-state lasers.

Protein

Proteins are large biomolecules, or macromolecules, consisting of one or more long chains of amino acid residues.

Rayleigh scattering

Rayleigh scattering (pronounced), named after the British physicist Lord Rayleigh (John William Strutt), is the (dominantly) elastic scattering of light or other electromagnetic radiation by particles much smaller than the wavelength of the radiation.

Optical tweezers and Raman spectroscopy Comparison

Optical tweezers has 82 relations, while Raman spectroscopy has 117. As they have in common 7, the Jaccard index is 3.52% = 7 / (82 + 117).
