10 months ago Our authoritative sources: CHMO, ISO18115:3 and CHARISMA, contain an overview of Raman sub-techniques (assays).
Neither of these is complete nor strictly coherent. Therefore it is our task to establish a classification of techniques and include it into VIBSO (or propose it to CHMO).
To put order within the jungle, we need to define some positive criteria, e.g.:
- techniques defined by a distinctive adjective (e.g. coherent vs non-coherent)
- techniques defined by an established combination of two or more adjectives (e.g. SERS, CARS)
- techniques which imply a specific set of experimental parameter
as well as some negative criteria:
- techniques defined by a casual combination of two or more adjectives (e.g. deep ultra-violet resonance Raman spectroscopy)
- techniques described in relation to aspects independent from the acquisition method such as sample preparation (e.g. drop coating deposition Raman spectroscopy)
unsure:
- techniques whose denomination does not differentiate it from the default (e.g. laser Raman spectroscopy: nowadays no experiment is conducted without a laser)
- techniques who do not imply different parameters (e.g. infrared vs ultra-violet vs visible)
- techniques which are too seldom, old or restricted (e.g. transmission Raman spectroscoy)
The combination techniques should be included axiomatically, by allowing instances to belong to more classes:
# An example of surface-enhanced anti-Stokes confocal Raman spectroscopy
ex:Measurement1 rdf:type vibso:RamanSpec_SurfaceEnhanced , # implies parameters about the surface
vibso:RamanSpec_AntiStokes , # implies a restriction on Raman shifts <0
vibso:RamanSpec_Confocal . # implies parameters on the focal depth...

This issue addresses the need to have classes in VIBSO that represent the various Raman spectroscopy assay types defined in the ISO18115:3 specs.
How we will do this is described in the below comment by@Zack-83.
In Raman.methods.ISO.CHMO.CHARISMA.xlsx we edit the proposed definitions, the priority of which terms from our sources to include, what superclasses they have and other information about them.
