Terahertz (THz) radiation, which occupies the frequency band between microwaves and infrared light, is essential in many next ...

It is remarkable that Raman spectra can, with the help of statistical inference, be used to predict cellular physiology and proteome composition. By making this possible, the work of Kamei et al. has ...

The evidence indicates that non-invasive monitoring (near-infrared spectroscopy; NIRS) of oxygen in brain tissue likely does not reduce death rates or short-term brain problems for very premature ...

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 ...

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 ...

Dual-comb spectroscopy performed in the mid-infrared—where molecules have their strongest rotovibrational absorption lines—offers the promise of high spectral resolution broadband spectroscopy with ...

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 ...

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was developed to detect protons, and has since then been applied in studying the molecular structure of proteins, RNA, DNA complexes, and interactions ...

FTIR deals with the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum, and it works by measuring how much light is absorbed by the bonds of vibrating molecules to provide a molecular fingerprint. The ...

CB Defense Today is an interview program featuring experts who discuss innovations, technologies, and partnerships relevant to the U.S. Army Combat ...

Since those early days, NMR spectroscopy progressed concurrently with advances in many other fields, such as mathematics, physics and informatics. In the 1960s, the implementation of superconducting ...
