Few Layers Graphene (FLG) films were grown on the carbon-terminated surface of 4H-SiC from nickel silicide supersaturated with carbon. The process was realised by annealing of thin Ni films deposited on silicon carbide followed by wet processing to remove the nickel silicide. To identify and characterize the fabricated FLG films, micro-Raman scattering spectroscopy, AFM and optical microscopy have been used. The films grown on samples with initially deposited nickel thinner than 20 nm show clear graphene footprints in micro-Raman scattering spectra, namely a single component, Lorentzian shape 2D band with FWHM remarkably lower than that of the 2D peak of graphite.

The orientational behaviour of some liquid crystals with various molecular structures was studied by means of the Raman scattering depolarization method. The Raman scattering spectra of linearly polarized light were recorded as a function of temperature in the nematic phase. On the basis of these spectra the order parameters 〈P2〉 and 〈P4〉 as well as the molecular distribution function were determined. The obtained data were compared with those estimated on the basis of polarized light absorption and emission measurements. The influence of the molecular structure on the orientational order of liquid crystals was discussed.

An experimental system for polarized soft X-ray Raman scattering spectroscopy has been constructed. The soft X-ray spectrometer is based on the Rowland circle geometry with a holographic spherical grating. Three types of gratings are used to cover the energy range from 18 eV to 1200 eV. According to a ray-trace simulation, the resolution is expected to be 200 meV at 700 eV by using a 10 µm slit width. The polarized and depolarized soft X-ray Raman scattering spectra can be measured by rotating the soft X-ray spectrometer around the axis of the incident beam. Preliminary measurements of polarized and depolarized spectra were accomplished at undulator beamline BL-2C of the Photon Factory.

FT-IR and Raman scattering spectra of cefuroxime axetil were proposed for identification studies of its crystalline and amorphous forms. An analysis of experimental spectra was supported by quantum-chemical calculations performed with the use of B3LYP functional and 6-31G(d,p) as a basis set. The geometric structure of a cefuroxime axetil molecule, HOMO and LUMO orbitals, and molecular electrostatic potential were also determined by using DFT (density functional theory). The benefits of applying FT-IR and Raman scattering spectroscopy for characterization of drug subjected to degradation were discussed.

A novel triiodide phase of the formamidinium cation, CH5N2 +·I3 −, crystallizes in the triclinic space group P\overline{1} at a temperature of 110 K. The structure consists of two independent isolated triiodide ions located on inversion centers. The centrosymmetric character of I3 − was additionally confirmed by the observed pronounced peaks of symmetrical oscillations of I3 − at 115–116 cm−1 in Raman scattering spectra. An additional structural feature is that each terminal iodine atom is connected with three neighboring planar formamidinium cations by N—H...I hydrogen bonding with the N—H...I bond length varying from 2.81 to 3.08 Å, forming a deformed two-dimensional framework of hydrogen bonds. A Mulliken population analysis showed that the calculated charges of hydrogen atoms correlate well with hydrogen-bond lengths. The crystal studied was refined as a three-component twin with domain ratios of 0.631 (1):0.211 (1):0.158 (1).
