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 ...

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 ...

Considering the numerous and substantial transformations that leather undergoes during the tanning production process, together with the complexity connected to the anisotropy of the matrix of natural ...

When things vibrate, they make sounds. Molecules do too, but at frequencies far beyond human hearing. Chemical bonds stretch, bend, and twist at characteristic rates that fall in the infrared region ...

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, ...

In IR spectroscopy (infrared spectroscopy), molecules are irradiated with infrared light, which excites them into ...

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) micro-spectroscopy merges infrared (IR) spectroscopy with visualization. As IR spectroscopy offers high specificity for molecular structure and chemical composition, ...

These developments continue to fuel growing investment into the technology and manufacture of semiconductor devices at both industrial and academic research levels. Improvements in technology, ...

A research team has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) system that proposes suitable molecular structures from the raw ...

Atomic force microscopy has long relied on the ability to acquire nanoscale chemical information while simultaneously characterizing nanomechanical properties. This article explores a new means of ...
