Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) micro-spectroscopy merges infrared (IR) spectroscopy with visualization. As IR spectroscopy offers high specificity for molecular structure and chemical composition, ...

All fibers were analyzed directly without additional modification or sampling accessories. The O-PTIR spectra resemble transmission-like IR spectra in non-contact (far-field) mode. Through spatially ...

The mIRage-LS optical photothermal infrared (O-PTIR) microscope has a spectral range of 3600-2700 and 1800-800 cm-1 for infrared (IR) spectroscopy and a spectral range of 3900 – 200 cm-1 for Raman ...

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 ...

Photothermal AFM-IR, or AFM-IR, is an analytical method used for chemical identification in a materials sample at the nanoscale. AFM-IR incorporates both the nanoscale spatial resolution of atomic ...

Drugs and fibers are among the materials collected in forensic and criminal laboratories. Some of these samples can be quite small, and light microscopes are frequently employed to examine evidence ...

Photothermal AFM-IR is a highly effective method for nanoscale chemical analysis, ideally suited to the stringent requirements of semiconductor research and production. By integrating the spatial ...

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 ...

IR spectroscopy, or infrared spectroscopy, is an analytical technique used to identify and study chemical substances based on their interaction with infrared radiation. It measures the absorption of ...
