Turning FTIR, Raman & XRD into clear insight

Skills you will gain:

About Workshop:

This workshop is designed to provide participants with a strong foundation in three essential material characterization techniques: FTIR Spectroscopy, Raman Spectroscopy, and X-ray Diffraction (XRD). Through a blend of theory, interpretation, and practical exercises, participants will learn how these analytical tools are used to study material composition, molecular structure, crystallinity, and functional properties across material science, nanotechnology, and pharmaceutical applications.

Over three days, the workshop will guide participants from the fundamentals of each technique to advanced data analysis and real-world applications. Each day includes a dedicated hands-on session using accessible computational platforms such as Google Colab and Jupyter Notebooks, enabling participants to work directly with spectral and diffraction data using Python-based tools.

Aim: The aim of the “Characterization Decoder: FTIR, Raman & XRD Made Clear” workshop is to equip participants with a clear understanding of FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, and XRD techniques, enabling them to effectively analyze and interpret material spectra for advanced research and practical applications in material science.

Workshop Objectives:

  • Introduce the core principles of FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, and XRD.
  • Equip participants with the skills to analyze and interpret spectral data.
  • Demonstrate the practical applications of these techniques in material science.
  • Provide hands-on training with real-world case studies and data analysis.
  • Enhance participants’ ability to select and apply the appropriate characterization technique for their research.
