The 2007 Charles Mann Award, given by the international Federation of Analytical Chemistry and Spectroscopy Societies, for Raman Spectroscopy is presented to Dr Neil Everall, affiliated with Intertek MSG in the United Kingdom. The award is presented to an individual who has demonstrated advancements presented at FACSS in the field of applied Raman spectroscopy and/or demonstrated dedication to the advancement of the FACSS Raman spectroscopy programme and the Raman sub-committee.
After post-doctoral work at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (near Oxford, UK), Everall joined ICI in 1988. For more than 13 years he led the infrared and Raman spectroscopy activity at ICI’s Measurement Science Group (MSG) at Wilton in the North-East of England. He was appointed an ICI Company Research Associate in 2003, making him the Company’s senior measurement scientist. In 2007, ICI divested its Measurement Science Group to Intertek PLC, and Everall is a Senior Scientist employed in the group which was formed, Intertek-MSG.
Neil Everall's research interests centre on the development and application of vibrational spectroscopy for characterising materials and industrial processes. In recent years this has included infrared and Raman studies of polymer structure (primarily polymerisation mechanisms, microstructure, crystallinity and molecular orientation), modelling the spatial response and depth resolution of the confocal Raman microscope, process analysis with Raman spectroscopy, and materials characterisation using infrared and Raman mapping/imaging. More recently he has been studying Raman photon migration in opaque media, in collaboration with workers at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, and has also been revisiting the issues that determine the working resolution of the Raman microscope.
