From left to right: Schematic of the nonlinear optical mirror used for up-conversion imaging. Energy diagram showing the sum frequency generation process used for up-conversion. Representative ...
In a new study published in Science, researchers have developed a new method for detecting infrared light by changing its frequency to a corresponding frequency in the range of visible light.
The human eye can only see light at certain frequencies (called the visible spectrum), the lowest of which constitutes red light. Infrared light, which we can’t see, has an even lower frequency than ...
Non-ionizing radiation includes the spectrum of ultraviolet (UV), visible light, infrared (IR), microwave (MW), radio frequency (RF) and extremely low frequency (ELF). Lasers commonly operate in the ...
Breakthrough results from collaboration with Sofradir. GRENOBLE, France – Oct. 19, 2010 – CEA-Leti said today it has demonstrated the first single-impulse active 3D imaging matrix operating at ...
Ultrabroadband IR frequency comb could be used for detection in portable spectrometers. The comb uses a double-chirped mirror. Researchers at MIT have demonstrated a compact, fully integrated ...

What is FTIR?

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is the preferred method of infrared spectroscopy. In this approach, IR radiation passes through a sample, where some of it is absorbed by the sample ...
