This webcast provides valuable insights into pressing industry challenges, with a specific focus on three key areas. Firstly, it addresses the increasing demand for miniaturized spectrometers that enable rapid analysis and cater to critical sectors such as precision agriculture and environmental monitoring. Secondly, the webcast highlights the importance of employing improved illumination techniques when conducting Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) measurements, thereby enhancing the accuracy and reliability of the results. Additionally, it emphasizes the significance of ultra-high dynamic range spectrometers, namely Hamamatsu’s new OPAL-LUXE, which opens new possibilities in applications that require monitoring weak and high intensity signals in one measurement, like in plasma physics and monitoring in laser-based applications.

Doing Big Business with Compact and Sophisticated Mini-Spectrometers

http://www.spectroscopyonline.com/spec_w/mini

Spectroscopy is a very powerful and versatile method. By measuring a spectrum it is possible to get a lot of information about the composition, color or even the thickness of a specimen. Hamamatsu is not only a world famous producer of highest quality image sensors for spectroscopy but also a manufacturer of novel miniaturized spectrometers using MOEMS technology. The webinar's focus will be on Hamamatsu's compact models to bring you affordable yet high-performance solutions. To name only a few of the vast variety of applications, the spectrometers can help with your environmental or food analysis as well as pharmaceutical or process analysis.

 is pleased to offer this series of educational webcasts as part of the Society of Applied Spectroscopy’s ongoing extension of its certification and training program. These webcasts are intended to provide a simple introduction and grounding in different types of spectroscopy for people that use or are thinking to use spectroscopy in their work or studies. The SAS webcasts can also serve as a refresher for those people that need reminding of important concepts or tricks and tips in various types of spectroscopy. This event also previews a short course that will be taught by Jim de Haseth at Pittcon 2020.

	The vibrational spectrometries-mid-infrared (mid-IR), near infrared (NIR) and Raman-are powerful analysis technologies, but often it is unclear exactly which vibrational spectrometry should be used for a given analysis. This brief webcast will provide an introduction to the origin of bands in the three spectrometries. Active bands differ from spectrometry to spectrometry, but some bands may be present in more than one of the technologies. Sensitivity differs from technique to technique and this can be very important for the selection of the appropriate spectrometry. These differences lead to different information content for the three techniques and it is incumbent upon the user to select the spectrometry best suited to a given task, or at least, to have enough information to confirm a result. This webcast will not cover instrumentation, but rather will be directed to the advantages and shortcomings of mid-infrared, Raman, and near infrared spectrometries.

		Learn the advantages and shortcomings of mid-infrared, Raman, and near infrared spectrometries, including differences in sensitivity

		Understand which active bands are present in each technique
