Combined Atomic Force Microscopy and Raman Spectroscopy Investigation of Fingerprints Detriment upon Liquid Exposure for Forensic Analysis
By employing an original experimental setup combining atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Raman spectroscopy to investigate opaque substrates in a liquid environment, the stability of fingerprints (latent or with synthetic residues) left for several hours in acidic water (mimicking acid rain) is studied. It is shown that, despite the general detriment of the fingerprint after a few hours, persistent residuals are found, showing good morphological stability and a characteristic Raman spectrum, which can be considered reliable proof of the presence of a fingerprint on the investigated surface. These findings demonstrate the importance of combining microscopic and spectroscopic analyses in scientific forensic investigations.
期刊介绍:
physica status solidi is devoted to the thorough peer review and the rapid publication of new and important results in all fields of solid state and materials physics, from basic science to applications and devices. Being among the largest and most important international publications, the pss journals publish review articles, letters and original work as well as special issues and conference contributions.
physica status solidi b – basic solid state physics is devoted to topics such as theoretical and experimental investigations of the atomistic and electronic structure of solids in general, phase transitions, electronic and optical properties of low-dimensional, nano-scale, strongly correlated, or disordered systems, superconductivity, magnetism, ferroelectricity etc.
