Abstract
The Raman microprobe technique can provide quantitative information on structure, composition, homogeneity, and stress, with 1-μm resolution. It is also a nondestructive technique that requires no special sample preparation and can be used in situ. After an introduction to Raman scattering and a description of the technique itself, the author reviews specific applications in the fields of laser recrystallization and laser damage of layered structures.
