Raman spectroscopic determination of the length, strength, compressibility, Debye temperature, elasticity, and force constant of the C–C bond in graphene by Zhou, Zhaofeng, Sun, Changqing, Yang, X. X., Li, J. W., Wang, Y., Yang, L. W., Zheng, W. T.

“…Theoretical unification of the measurements clarifies that: (i) the opposite trends of the Raman shifts, which are due to the number-of-layers reduction, of the G-peak shift and arises from the vibration of a pair of atoms, while the D- and the 2D-peak shifts involve the z-neighbor of a specific atom; (ii) the tensile strain-induced phonon softening and phonon-band splitting arise from the asymmetric response of the C3v bond geometry to the C2v uni-axial bond elongation; (iii) the thermal softening of the phonons originates from bond expansion and weakening; and (iv) the pressure stiffening of the phonons results from bond compression and work hardening. …”

Dynamic focal spots registration algorithm for freeform surface measurement by Guo, Wenjiang, Zhao, Liping, Chen, I-Ming

“…As the distribution of focal spots is correlated to the surface sampling condition, while a uniform rectangular grid is good enough to register all the focal spots of a uniformly sampled near flat surface, the focal spots of aspherical or freeform surfaces have varying shapes and sizes depending on the surface geometry. In this case, the normal registration method is not applicable. …”
