The Gordon F. Kirkbright and Edward Steers awards are seeking nominations.
UHV X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy systems have unravelled the Na interaction process at Na/CuPc and Na/F16CuPc interfaces.
GHGSat has equipped its existing satellite constellation with three more ABB-built optical sensors, increasing the frequency of observations and capacity to precisely pinpoint the source of methane emissions.
Researchers at Tokyo Medical and Dental University use X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to discover what gives titanium implants their remarkable biocompatibility, which may lead to more affordable medical and dental procedures.
Anne Brontë is renowned as a novelist, but a Raman analysis of her collection of stones has revealed her to be a skilled collector with an active interest in geology who accumulated a collection of attractive specimens before her death aged 29 in 1849.
Hyperpolarised water boosts signal intensities of proteins, DNA and membranes in NMR spectroscopy.
Researchers have used NMR spectroscopy to conduct the first assessment of metabolites in African savanna elephants, an important step in understanding the relationship between their metabolism and health.
A spectrometer is being used to measure the MOF and guest molecule absorbance of two differently polarised types of infrared light, enabling the first measurement of both guest–guest and guest–host interactions in real-time.
NIREOS has been awarded a European Union grant to develop a new imaging camera based on time-domain Fourier transform spectroscopy.
The award will be presented to a chemometrician, younger than 40 years of age, who has contributed significantly to the development of chemometrics in the last 5 years.
The first local managing director for Shimadzu Denmark, Joachim Holm, has been appointed.
Nearly €2.5M over a period of five years has been awarded to develop research that aims to better understand how mechanical forces and chemistry affect each other by studying the rupture and reformation of basic chemical bonds.
Research shows that it is possible to classify rocks according to the size of the particles they contain during quarrying, using a portable Raman spectrometer.
The new Raman spectroscopy methodology has the potential to detect infections in cystic fibrosis patients in minutes and could be expanded to target a variety of diseases and counter anti-microbial resistance.
Polyethylene accounts for nearly one-third of the world’s plastic waste. An interdisciplinary team from the University of Bayreuth has used NMR spectroscopy to investigate the progressive degradation of polyethylene in the environment for the first time.
Terahertz imaging and signal processing techniques to look beneath the corroded surface of a 16th-century lead funerary cross.
Optical solitons often combine into pairs with very short temporal separation. Introducing atomic vibrations in the terahertz range, researchers at the Universities of Bayreuth and Wrocław have solved the puzzle of how these temporal links are formed.
A type of optical fibre with a refractive index that varies continuously across the fibre structure has been shown to yield a dramatic increase in supercontinuum power, while still preserving a smooth beam intensity profile.
Researchers at Samsung developed a novel approach to inspect and measure the critical dimensions of semiconductor devices using hyperspectral imaging, with higher speed and resolution than conventional methods.
Air-lasing-assisted coherent Raman spectroscopy can provide quantitative measurement and simultaneous detection of two greenhouse gases, as well as the identification of CO2 isotopes.
