Applications

Micro-XRF is a versatile tool for fast analysis of NiP and Au dual-layer plating thickness on circuit boards without requiring sample preparation.

Fluorescence-based methods to detect and quantify Chlorophyll A offer higher sensitivity than absorbance-based methods.

Fluorescence spectroscopy, Raman microscopy and particle size distribution analysis are used to characterise sunscreens.

Single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have unique electrical, thermal, mechanical and optical properties which make them attractive for a wide variety of applications;

This application note shows how to characterise protein therapeutic formulations for aggregation behaviour in a matter of seconds with A-TEEM spectroscopy.

Raman and photoluminescence spectral imaging are applied to reveal otherwise invisible spatial variation in chemical/crystal structure.

Nanomolar concentrations of complementary DNA are quantified using a molecular beacon with a spectrofluorometer.

This note presents a reinvestigation and revaluation of the quantum yield of 2AMP in 1 M H₂SO₄ using quinine bisulphate in 1 M H₂SO₄ as the reference standard with a modern spectrofluorometer.

Time-resolved emission spectroscopy is used to identify the emission pathways in the 0D metal halide hybrid, Tris SbMnCl.

In this application note the effect of PPO concentration on the luminescence decay profile of the LAB/PPO system is investigated using time-resolved X-ray excited luminescence spectroscopy.

This application note describes how Raman and photoluminescence microscopy can be used as an analysis tool in any forensic laboratory.

Photoluminescence is proportional to the number of charge carriers in the perovskite and, therefore, is sensitive to charge transfer into adjacent layers. This makes photoluminescence-based techniques invaluable for investigating the performance of new extraction layers.

Candidate materials for optical in vivo oxygen sensing were evaluated in a relevant in vitro environment through careful control and monitoring of the solution temperature and dissolved oxygen concentration.

Electron Multiplying CCD (EMCCD) cameras can be used to detect very weak signals, which would otherwise be lost within the noise floor of the camera.

The reduction of Pt^VI to Pt^II in chemotherapy drugs is studied in this application.

The measurement of fluorescence lifetimes provides a wealth of information on the sample under study.

Characterisation of the absorbance, emission and lifetime of novel quantum dot emitters helps establish structure–property relationships.
