The Raman spectra are acquired at SSETM energies using temperature-tuned diode lasers directly over the object surface both vertically or horizontally. The applied SSETM algorithm takes advantage of the fact that Raman signals exhibit a spectral shift as a function of excitation energy whereas the fluorescence remains constant. The generated Raman spectra are fluorescence-free and feature a high signal-to-noise ratio. Spectra can be recorded with both excitation lines (785 & 852 nm) in the extended range (3200-170 cm-1) or with a single excitation line, 785 nm in the 3200-2000 cm-1 or 852 nm in the 2000-170 cm-1. The instrument is place directly in front of the artefact both vertically or horizontally using a tripod.
