Absorption spectroscopy is a molecular spectroscopy method that uses the wavelength dependent absorption characteristics of materials to identify and quantify specific substances. Many molecules absorb ultraviolet or visible light. The absorbance of a solution increases as the attenuation of the...
Fluorescence is a process in which a molecule, quantum dot or other quantum emitter gets into an excited state by absorbing light and in return emits light of a different color. Because some energy is lost in the time the...
LIBS (Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy) is an extremely versatile spectroscopic technique which can be used to analyze the atomic composition of virtually any material. In a LIBS Spectroscopy system, a short laser pulse is used to ablate material from the surface...
An Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) system uses low coherence interference to measure reflectance versus distance into a material. Light from a semi-broadband source (like a Superluminescent LED) is split into a reference arm (with a fixed mirror) and a sample...
Raman spectroscopy is a molecular spectroscopic technique that relies on inelastic scattering of monochromatic light in molecular structures. The incident laser light changes the excitation states of the molecules, and during this process, the molecules will emit light at higher...
