Infrared nanospectroscopy enables novel possibilities for chemical and structural analysis of nanocomposites, biomaterials or optoelectronic devices. Here we introduce hyperspectral infrared ...

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 ...

FTIR deals with the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum, and it works by measuring how much light is absorbed by the bonds of vibrating molecules to provide a molecular fingerprint. The ...

Submicron and nanoscale chemical identification of semiconductor materials, particularly organic ones, poses a considerable challenge in the analysis of devices and also in the process control and ...

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 ...

Shale, a sedimentary rock that is a rich source of petroleum, consists of solid organic matter scattered in a mineral framework. Scanning electron microscopy reveals that neighboring organic matter ...

These developments continue to fuel growing investment into the technology and manufacture of semiconductor devices at both industrial and academic research levels. Improvements in technology, ...

In photosynthesis and organic photovoltaics, pigment molecules convert light into electrical charge. Chemists have now produced an unusual organic pigment, which is 'switched on' by an electrical ...

It’s an open secret that organic chemistry students struggle to learn a skill that is integral to the field: interpreting nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. Organic chemists use this important tool ...
