Abstract

Devices, methods of using the device, systems including the device that include a sample plate with sample containers (wells), wherein at least a portion of the surface of the sample plate and/or sample containers is coated with an optical reflective material. The optical reflective material, provides enhanced excitation signal intensity and enhanced Raman signal intensity. Such enhancement provides improved total signal detection capabilities, and methods of improved focusing algorithms.
