In the agricultural and food industry, determining the chemical composition of raw materials is important for production efficiency, application, and price. Traditional laboratory testing is ...

Multilayer materials of cultural heritage such as historical materials and artwork are analysed as cross-section samples using microscopy and FTIR microscopy. Most commonly, these samples are embedded ...

This article introduces the differences and similarities between Raman and infrared spectroscopy for identifying unknown materials and monitoring reactions. While the techniques are pretty similar, ...

Researchers have developed a low-cost method for the analysis of interfacial molecules by combining ATR-IR with precise gap-control and multi-variate data analysis. A novel spectroscopic method ...

Inks and paints are everywhere in the world around us. As well as for writing and printing, these materials are also used for protection against the elements and aesthetic reasons. These substances ...

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is the preferred method of infrared spectroscopy. In this approach, IR radiation passes through a sample, where some of it is absorbed by the sample ...

Researchers have developed an innovative photodetector capable of detecting a broad range of mid-infrared spectra. NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) utilizes mid-infrared spectroscopy to ...

Drugs and fibers are among the materials collected in forensic and criminal laboratories. Some of these samples can be quite small, and light microscopes are frequently employed to examine evidence ...
