Coupling mid-infrared “idler” photons with near-infrared “signal” photons enables cheaper, smaller and more efficient machines for uses such as greenhouse gas monitoring to medical diagnostics.

The application of spectroscopy to soil analysis is revolutionising our understanding of soil properties and organic matter content across diverse landscapes. By employing visible, near-infrared and ...

Near-IR spectroscopy belongs to the group of vibrational spectroscopy techniques, along with mid-infrared spectroscopy (primarily FT-IR) and Raman spectroscopy. The first near-IR spectrometers were ...

In this interview, Sue Berets, the Applications Scientist at Harrick Scientific, talks to AZoM about specular reflectance measurements and the difference between absolute and relative. Please tell us ...
