Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is a precise analytical method that detects molecular vibrations, creating unique spectra for identifying functional groups and structures. It’s used in fields from ...

Researchers demonstrate critical improvements to functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS)-based optical imaging in the brain. In an article published today in the peer-reviewed, open-access SPIE ...

When neuroscientist and musician AZA Allsop discovered research by his Yale colleague Joy Hirsch about how group drumming and musical interaction can affect social behavior, he knew there was a ...

Spectroscopy isn’t just for scientists in lab coats—it’s a toolkit anyone can learn to use for uncovering the hidden architecture of molecules. By combining NMR, IR, and other techniques, chemists can ...

IR spectroscopy allows studying large sample areas with very high local resolution. A new detection system examines all points on the image simultaneously, ensuring average measuring time of only a ...

Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is suitable for qualitative analysis of initial polymer materials and end products. With this technique, components of polymer mixtures can be measured and in-process ...
