Aim:
To investigate noise reduction in raman spectra.

Introduction:
Raman spectroscopy is used to describe a variety of material
properties, including industrial process control, biological sciences,
and geological fields, among others.

During the extraction process, however, the Raman spectrum signal

would be intermingled with other disturbances. It is vital to decrease
noise in the spectrum extraction procedure in order to make Raman
spectroscopy a viable instrument for examining and detecting
chemicals. There are numerous ways for reducing noise in known
signals, including the wavelet approach, empirical mode
decomposition method, and so on. These strategies have shown to be
quite effective at reducing signal noise. Raman spectroscopy is
distinct from other signals because of its unique properties. Between
the peaks and valleys, there lies a huge chasm. Various peaks signify
different qualities of substances.

If noise gets added into the spectrum, the experiment is generally

meaningless.

Raman spectroscopy is a method widely used to describe the

characteristics of materials, including industrial process control,
planetary exploration, homeland security, life sciences, geological field
investigations, and laboratory material research. In all these
environments, it is necessary to obtain clear and effective Raman
spectra as a prerequisite. Assuming that if noise masks part of the
secondary peak information, subsequent experiments will be
meaningless.

Methodology:

We have used noise removal techniques using filtering methods.

It uses various computational filters to identify noise.

Results :

It results in a much smoother curve which can be used for

analysis.
