Infrared spectroscopy (IR) is based on the interaction of the vibrational frequencies of individual (and groups of) bonds within a molecule with the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.

A promising microspectroscopy technique has just become far more promising thanks to an improvement that increases the technique’s sensitivity and spatial resolution. The advance, which combines ...

IR spectroscopy, or infrared spectroscopy, is an analytical technique used to identify and study chemical substances based on their interaction with infrared radiation. It measures the absorption of ...

Optical photothermal infrared (O-PTIR) spectroscopy is an infrared super-resolution measurement technique where a shorter ...

The sample preparation before conducting an infrared spectroscopy (IR) study is as critical as the study itself, and the samples which are difficult to dissolve in any IR-transparent solvent are mixed ...

Infrared and Raman spectroscopies can observe different types of molecular vibrations. Using both methods on a compound provides a more complete molecular picture than either alone. But the two ...

Definition: Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy is a highly specialized type of IR spectroscopy. It's the most common way IR measurements are carried out today. FTIR is known for its speed, ...

Last Sunday, November 8, was the International Day of Radiology (IDoR 2020), an event celebrated by radiologists, technologists, and nuclear medicine professionals worldwide. The subdiscipline within ...

In X-ray crystallography, X-rays of sufficient energy are used to excite the inner shell electrons in the atoms of a sample. The electrons move first to the outer orbitals and then down into the ...
