Abstract Phonons provide information on the physicochemical properties of a crystalline lattice from the material’s vibrational spectrum. Optical phonons, in particular, can be probed at both micrometre and nanometre scales using light-based techniques, such as, micro-Raman and tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS),…

We report the viscoelastic relaxation mechanisms of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) dispersed individually in fluids. Linear viscoelasticity and flow birefringence of softwood and tunicate CNC/glycerol dispersions in the dilute regime were measured. The obtained results were then compared with molecular theories for the…
