Abstract
A Raman probe assembly comprises: a light source for generating laser excitation light; a camera for capturing an image; a light analyzer for analyzing a Raman signature; and a light path for (i) delivering the laser excitation light from the light source to the specimen so as to produce the Raman signature for the specimen, (ii) capturing an image of the specimen and directing that image to the camera, and (iii) directing the Raman signature of the specimen to the light analyzer. A method includes providing a Raman probe assembly carried by a remote controlled robot; navigating the remote control robot to a position adjacent to a specimen; opening a shutter/wiper disposed adjacent to a window of the Raman analyzer; using a camera to aim the probe body at the specimen; energizing a light source; and analyzing the return light passed to the light analyzer.
