Different atoms and ions possess characteristic energy levels. Like a fingerprint, they are unique for each species. Among them, the atomic ion 173 Yb + has attracted growing interest because of its ...

Spectroscopic methods form the cornerstone of molecular analysis by probing interactions between electromagnetic radiation and matter to reveal structural, dynamical and compositional information.

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 ...

Accurately and rapidly quantifying protein content is essential for modern biology, biochemistry, and biophysics laboratories worldwide. Researchers are focused on determining total protein content, ...

Current techniques for measuring nano/microplastic (N/MP) concentrations in soil require the soil organic matter content to be separated and have limited resolution for analyzing N/MPs sized <1 m.

Researchers have developed and tested an infrared spectroscopy system that can rapidly detect chemical aerosols from a ...

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are significant contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, including methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), and nitrous oxide (N2O). Traditional methods for ...

Bio-monitoring refers to tracking changes in biological molecules or reactions over time. When using miniaturized flow systems, the ability to monitor concentrations within microchannels is essential ...

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 ...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is based on the same principle as all photoelectron spectroscopy methods. If a molecule or material is irradiated with light of a known energy above the ionization ...
