Understanding how the changes in the Raman spectra are correlated with the atomic structure would be highly desirable for fast material identification and analysis. Extracting such trends from experimental spectra can be difficult owing to the uncertainties in the structural details of the samples and in ensuring consistency between measurements from different sources. Simulated spectra, however, avoid these problems, making them a good candidate for systematic studies. Here, we study the correlation between the structure and Raman spectral features of 179 silicates derived from a database of Raman spectra simulated using first-principles calculations.

In the study, tissue surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) in combination with deep learning was used to classify cystic and alveolar echinococcosis and healthy controls. Silver nanoparticles served as SERS-enhanced substrates, and a large amount of tissue SERS spectra was collected.
