I'm trying to obtain a raman spectra of chitosan (natural polymer with ammine groups) but the only thing that I get is the image I attached.

As you can see, there is the raylight (it is not perfectly filtered) and then a band from 100 to 1100 cm-1. The band is supposed to be the intrensic fluorescence of chitosan. Do you have any tricks to avoid the fluorescence because I'm afraid that it covers the raman signal?

(I'm already using a 780nm laser because I read that it can reduce the fluorescence but I still have it).
