Definition: Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy is a highly specialized type of IR spectroscopy. It's the most common way IR measurements are carried out today. FTIR is known for its speed, ...

Infrared vibrational spectroscopy could enable the production of high-resolution maps of molecules inside live cells and cell organelles. A new study from Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) and Humboldt ...

We investigated rearrangements of the hydrogen-bond network in water by measuring fluctuations in the OH-stretching frequency of HOD in liquid D 2 O with femtosecond infrared spectroscopy. Using ...

Infrared spectroscopy (IRS) is a technique used to analyze individual substances in isolation or a mixture, using their spectral information. IRS is based on the measurement of the wavelength and ...

A blood test using infrared spectroscopy can be used to diagnose two types of cancer, lymphoma and melanoma, according to a study led by Georgia State University. Researchers used mid-infrared ...

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 ...

A promising microspectroscopy technique has just become far more promising thanks to an improvement that increases the technique’s sensitivity and spatial resolution. The advance, which combines ...

Research into spectroscopy in the mid-IR spectral region has made several recent breakthroughs, spurred by potential uses of the technique in biophotonics and medical imaging. But development of ...

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a noninvasive method used to monitor changes in hemoglobin concentration and oxygen levels in the body. This technique involves passing near-infrared light, ...

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 ...
