Raman, Conventional Infrared <strong>and</strong> Synchrotron Infrared Spectroscopy in Mineralogy <strong>and</strong> Geochemistry: Basics <strong>and</strong> Applications 69 technical rather than fundamental, it may change with evolving technology. With <strong>to</strong>day’s technology, a spectrometer with a laser wavelength longer than 850 nm will be FT, since suitable multichannel detec<strong>to</strong>rs are not available for Raman-shifted wavelengths longer than ~1000 nm. Furthermore, there are good reasons (in general) <strong>to</strong> avoid laser wavelengths

In some cases there are significant advantages over diffraction methods, as the spectra are easy <strong>to</strong> obtain from solids, liquids <strong>and</strong> gases, <strong>and</strong> from materials with low a<strong>to</strong>mic weight. In earth sciences, vibrational spectroscopy is commonly used <strong>to</strong> identify specific molecular groups (or <strong>to</strong> moni<strong>to</strong>r their changes in diverse in-situ reactions) such as OH, H 2 O, CO 2 , CO 3 , SO 4 , NO 3 , SiO 4 , CrO 4 , CH 2 , CH 3 , CH 4 , etc., all of which usually give intense Raman <strong>and</strong> IR peaks. Structural changes can be moni<strong>to</strong>red in time-resolved experiments, <strong>and</strong> the distribution of species in heterogeneous samples can be investigated by mapping <strong>and</strong> imaging. Fingerprint analysis in fluid inclusions studies Fluid inclusion (FI) research, for example, is a worth mentioning field of <strong>geochemistry</strong>, which greatly benefits from these abilities. Studies of FI provide insights in<strong>to</strong> geological processes in the Earth's crust governed by chemical reactions between rocks <strong>and</strong> natural fluids. Raman <strong>and</strong> IR microspectroscopy provide qualitative <strong>and</strong> quantitative information on molecular species. Sometimes H 2 O <strong>and</strong> OH may cause interferences in the IR analysis of aqueous <strong>and</strong> gas inclusions due <strong>to</strong> their strong absorption. On the other h<strong>and</strong> Raman spectra can be completely obscured by fluorescence emission from inclusions, host minerals, or organics present in the sample or in the mounting media. Molecular components like N 2 (only Raman active), CO 2 , CH 4 , H 2 O <strong>and</strong> molecular ions such as OH - , HS - 2- or SO 4 can be routinely analyzed in fluid inclusions by Raman <strong>and</strong> IR spectroscopy. The spectrum in Fig. 3 contains prominent Raman FIGURE 3.
