As much as we know today about the planets of the solar system, it’s almost incomprehensible that a mere 50 years ago we knew almost nothing about them. Observations of even Mars and Venus, Earth’s ...

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 ...

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, ...

Researchers have miniaturized a spectrophotometer onto a single chip that can analyze any wavelength of visible light and part of the infrared spectrum (Science 2021, DOI: 10.1126/science.add8544).

Infrared spectroscopy under strong magnetic fields is a powerful tool for probing quantum phenomena, but its potential has been constrained by a persistent technical bottleneck: the lack of in-situ ...
