Raman spectroscopy is a reliable quantitative and qualitative technique used to examine molecular or material samples. Raman spectroscopy’s sensitivity to a sample’s vibrational structure makes it ...

In ISS, a beam of ions (often noble gas ions like He+ or Ne+) is directed at the sample surface under ultra-high vacuum conditions. The ions interact with the surface atoms, and their scattering is ...

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 ...

Understanding the properties of different materials is an important step in material design. X-ray absorption spectroscopy ...

Why is Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy Used? One of the main techniques for evaluating the optical properties of materials is optical absorption spectroscopy, or UV-vis spectroscopy. Most absorption ...

Raman spectroscopy has been highlighted as a vital tool for characterizing 2D materials-based van der Waal heterostructures. In this article, we explore its applications in analyzing graphene, TMDs ...

Cyanobacteria, commonly known as blue-green algae, are found almost everywhere in the world—from hot springs to arctic ice to ...

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have measured how oxygenated hemoglobin levels in the blood change in infants' brains in response to touch. Using spectroscopy methods with external ...

Researchers have developed a noninvasive Raman spectroscopy approach to map how egg cell metabolism changes with age. The study shows that older mouse oocytes display delayed metabolic maturation ...
