Researchers have shown how spectroscopic measurements can be made much faster. By correlating polarization to the color of a pulsed laser, the team can track changes in the spectrum of the light by ...

Virtually every scientific field has made strides by harnessing light to study the properties of substances. This technique, called spectroscopy, has countless research applications, and innovations ...

A gap-controlled infrared technique makes it possible to study molecular interfaces with high sensitivity using affordable, widely available lab equipment. These molecular interfaces are everywhere—on ...

Near-infrared spectroscopy, known as NIR spectroscopy or NIRS, is a long-established analytical technique. For over 30 years, it has proven to be a fast and reliable method for measuring chemical and ...

Sum-frequency generation (SFG) is a powerful vibrational spectroscopy that can selectively probe molecular structures at surfaces and interfaces, but its spatial resolution has been limited to the ...

Why 3,000 bars are needed to take a comprehensive look at a protein: Researchers present a new high-pressure spectroscopy method to unravel the properties of proteins' native structures. A pressure of ...

Elemental spectroscopy is a method employed to examine in-service fluid samples such as engine oil or hydraulic fluid, to determine the presence and quantity of different substances. This approach ...

While many people often use spectroscopy and spectrometry interchangeably, there are some subtle differences in their exact meanings and the associated experimental techniques they are used to ...

Researchers at Tampere University and their collaborators have shown how spectroscopic measurements can be made much faster. By correlating polarization to the colour of a pulsed laser, the team can ...
