Label-free linear and non-linear vibrational spectroscopy for functional materials: state-of-the-art and future perspectives.

ABSTRACT: Functional materials, with their specific properties and functions, are instrumental in advancing technological applications across diverse fields such as biomedicine, energy, aerospace, and electronics. To drive innovation in these materials, it is essential to understand their molecular and structural compositions and to correlate these to their switchable macroscopic properties. This correlation is fundamental to their development and optimization. In this context, label-free linear and non-linear vibrational spectroscopy techniques such as infrared (IR) absorption and Raman spectroscopy are invaluable. These techniques offer molecular-level insights into the composition, structure, and dynamic molecular behavior of these functional materials. Moreover, they enable non-invasive, detaile
