Spectroscopy and Space Exploration: A One-Day Content Series on July 20th
Spectroscopy magazine is pleased to announce the launch of a new one-day content series titled, “Spectroscopy and Space Exploration,” which will take place this Thursday, July 20th, 2023.
Spectroscopy has a long history of contributing toward space exploration studies and advancing our knowledge of astronomy, astrophysics, and planetary science. On July 20th, we will spotlight current research in the field of spectroscopy that has helped advance space exploration and focus on the spectroscopic techniques that have paved the way for future studies in space exploration.
Spectroscopy magazine is excited to be bringing this content series to you, and it is our hope that you find the content we share interesting and informative. Be sure to check out our main homepage on July 20th, so you can embark on your journey to see the impact that spectroscopists are having in the field of space exploration.
Watch the preview below for a sneak peek at what to expect for this one-day content series:
Getting accurate IR spectra on monolayer of molecules
April 18th 2024Creating uniform and repeatable monolayers is incredibly important for both scientific pursuits as well as the manufacturing of products in semiconductor, biotechnology, and. other industries. However, measuring monolayers and functionalized surfaces directly is. difficult, and many rely on a variety of characterization techniques that when used together can provide some degree of confidence. By combining non-contact atomic force microscopy (AFM) and IR spectroscopy, IR PiFM provides sensitive and accurate analysis of sub-monolayer of molecules without the concern of tip-sample cross contamination. Dr. Sung Park, Molecular Vista, joined Spectroscopy to provide insights on how IR PiFM can acquire IR signature of monolayer films due to its unique implementation.
