Fiber-based frequency comb

This article shows the benefits and ease with which mid-infrared testing can reveal supply change mismanagement events and help to quickly identify and correct mishaps.

In this two-part "Icons of Spectroscopy" column, executive editor Jerome Workman Jr. details how Karl H. Norris has impacted the analysis of food, agricultural products, and pharmaceuticals over six decades. His pioneering work in optical analysis methods including his development and refinement of near-infrared spectroscopy, has transformed analysis technology. In this Part II article of a two-part series, we summarize Norris’ foundational publications in NIR, his patents, achievements, and legacy.

Scientists demonstrate submicron detection of microbes and minerals in Mars-analogue basalt using O-PTIR spectroscopy

Scientists explore the potential of dilute III-V NIR semiconductors for Tuberculosis diagnostics, offering improved sensitivity and efficiency.

Researchers have developed a novel approach to improve the accuracy of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS or NIR) in quantifying highly porous, patient-specific drug formulations. By combining machine learning with advanced Raman imaging, the study enhances the precision of non-destructive pharmaceutical analysis, paving the way for better personalized medicine.
