Using a mass spectrometer allows scientists to weigh the molecules of an unknown material, which can then be matched to the lab’s database. “We just hold a wood sliver with tweezers and let a ...

An international team of researchers has developed a mid-infrared spectrometer smaller than the diameter of a human hair. With potential applications that range from detecting greenhouse gases to ...

This is an illustration of Jefferson Lab's CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer, along with an event reconstructed from the data. In this experiment, an incident 5 GeV electron scatters from a nucleon ...

Fluorescence often hinders the authentication of raw materials via Raman spectroscopy. BRAVO incorporates SSE ™ (Sequentially Shifted Excitation), a patented fluorescence reduction technique. This ...

Reliable analytical instruments like spectrometers are essential for advancing health care research and diagnostics. However, budgetary constraints often require cost-effectiveness without ...
