The potential of on-site Raman microspectroscopy for the analysis of colorless and colored
amorphous silicates is reviewed. We present the experimental procedures and models used …

Ancient mosaic tesserae are a range of materials of very varied and complex nature,
including pottery, stone and glass. Raman spectroscopy is a powerful tool for the analysis of …

Glass has not only been produced to make glass artefacts. The largest range of glass
compositions was prepared by potters in order to coat pottery with glazes and to apply …

The experimental procedures and most important conclusions of the first on-site Raman
study of the stained glass windows in the upper chapel of the Sainte-Chapelle, Paris are …

A selection of 23 rare glass objects, mostly enameled, of various provenance and age, from
the 5th century BC to the 19th century AD including the Western and Islamic Middle Ages but …

The recent progress, in the use of optical/vibrational spectroscopy for the identification and
understanding of the nanostructure of amorphous and crystalline silicates, is reviewed. The …

Raman microscopy (RM) is widely used in archaeometrical studies of pigments,
geomaterials and biomaterials in the Cultural Heritage, but one domain has received …

The aim of this investigation was to establish a Raman procedure for on‐site identification of
stained‐glass windows and their deterioration level. This study of a representative series of …

This study proposes a new nondestructive methodology that combines micro‐Raman
spectroscopy and micro‐X‐ray diffraction (μ‐XRD), complemented by variable pressure …

Raman micro/macro spectroscopy allows a non-destructive remote analysis: body and
glaze, crystalline and amorphous phases can be identified, including the nanosized …
