For low-noise Raman spectra in which, for example, secondary phases can be detected or in which small sample quantities can be analyzed, long integration times and often additional accumulations of several measurements are usually required. To reduce both, a very stable laser is required. Inelastic scattering of light due to the Raman effect is significantly less efficient than, for example, absorption due to molecular vibrations in infrared spectroscopy.
