Researchers at St. Petersburg University have developed an efficient way to detect a crucial immunity biomarker—neopterin—in the blood using nanotechnology and a laser. Neopterin is a nucleotide whose ...

Scientists in Germany's Max Planck Institute (MPI) showed that metal surfaces can reshape what atomic motion looks like at the nanoscale.

New first-principles simulations reveal how metallic surfaces reshape nanoscale vibrational imaging, advancing the interpretation of tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy.

Probing the vibration of atoms provides detailed information on local structure and bonding that define material properties.

A research team led by Prof. Fang Yonghua from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences ...

Near-infrared spectroscopy, known as NIR spectroscopy or NIRS, is a long-established analytical technique. For over 30 years, it has proven to be a fast and reliable method for measuring chemical and ...

ABSTRACT: This study employs Raman spectroscopy for the first time to characterize (Z)-N-(2-amino-1,2-dicyanovinyl) formimidate. Raman, in addition to IR and NMR (acquired and literature), helps ...

The Pareto Principle: 80% of outcomes stem from 20% of causes. Applying the 80/20 rule can optimize business resource allocation. Focus on high-performing areas for better productivity and results.

The x-axis represents the Raman shift, measured in wavenumbers (cm⁻¹). It indicates the energy difference between the incident laser light and the scattered photons, corresponding to specific ...

*If you learn how to use atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), you can do accurate and reliable chemical research. But it takes practice and concentration to fully grasp its basic ideas. Understanding ...
