It is important that each company's material fits within the allotted space. The editors cannot be responsible for substantial editing or handling of application notes that deviate from the following guidelines: Each application note page should be no more than 500 words in length and should follow the following format.
All text will be published in accordance with Spectroscopy's style to maintain uniformity throughout the book. It also will be checked for grammatical accuracy, although the content will not be edited. Text should be sent in electronic format, preferably using Microsoft Word.
Refer to photographs, line drawings, and graphs in the text using arabic numerals in consecutive order (Figure 1, etc.). Company logos, line drawings, graphs, and charts must be professionally rendered and submitted as .TIF or .EPS files with a minimum resolution of 300 dpi. Lines of spectrums must be heavy enough to remain legible after reduction. Provide labels and identification. Provide figure captions as part of the text, each identified by its proper number and title. If you wish to submit a figure or spectrum, please follow the format of the sample provided below.
Figure 1
Each table should be typed as part of the main text document. Refer to tables in the text by Roman numerals in consecutive order (Table I, etc.). Every table and each column within the table must have an appropriate heading. Table number and title must be placed in a continuous heading above the data presented. If you wish to submit a table, please follow the format of the sample provided below.
Table I: Factor levels used in the designs
Literature citations must be indicated by arabic numerals in parentheses. List cited references at the end in the order of their appearance. Use the following format for references:

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.
