What are the Challenges in Nanoscale Spectroscopy?
While nanoscale spectroscopy offers numerous advantages, it also presents several challenges:
- Resolution: Achieving high spatial resolution is difficult and often requires sophisticated equipment and techniques. - Sensitivity: Detecting signals from very small quantities of materials can be challenging, necessitating highly sensitive detectors and enhancement techniques like SERS. - Complexity: The interpretation of spectroscopic data at the nanoscale can be complex due to the intricate interactions between light and nanoscale materials.
