Markets Served
ICL supplies a broad range of optics, supplies, and accessories for spectroscopy to end-users, dealers, catalog vendors, and instrument manufacturers worldwide. Customers can access ICL's products on-line, through extensive catalogs, and a network of more than 75 dealers who service customers in most markets throughout the world.
Major Products/Services
ICL products enable spectroscopists to make the most out of modern spectroscopic instruments. Products include IR crystal optics; KBr powder; liquid and gas transmission cells; long path gas cells; cuvettes for UV–vis, NIR, and fluorescence spectroscopy; solid sampling accessories such as mills, mortars and pestles, lab presses and dies for making KBr pellets for IR spectroscopy, and briquets for XRF spectroscopy.
Facility
ICL provides customer support at our state of the art manufacturing plant in Garfield, New Jersey. We maintain several FT-IR and UV–vis spectrophotometers for product quality control. Our plant is serviced by a 150 kWh backup generator which guarantees that we are able to be productive at all times, including 100% on line time during Hurricanes Irene and Sandy.

The bulky bench-top NIR spectrometer is quietly being dismantled and rebuilt as a wafer-scale photonic chip, a self-calibrating algorithm, and a sensor small enough to ride in a shirt pocket. What once demanded a grating, a moving mirror, and a climate-controlled lab now fits inside a handheld module, a bioreactor probe, or a drone payload, and it increasingly figures out what it is looking at on its own.
In the first part of a multi-part Q&A, Brandon Boor, the Dr. Margery E. Hoffman Associate Professor in the Lyles School of Civil and Construction Engineering at Purdue University, describes the instrumentation and methodology behind measuring nanoparticle size distributions at the nanocluster scale (1–3 nm) and outlines the technical challenges of acquiring reliable, real-time data at these dimensions.
Reliability, dynamic measurements, artificial intelligence, and real-world applications are reshaping Raman spectroscopy – while Molecular Photonics points toward new translational frontiers.
In this “Tutorial Tuesday” clip, we explore one of the spectroscopic techniques that are used to characterize polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).
An upcoming presentation will explore how we can better understand and control nanoparticle morphology is critical for tuning material performance.
Jurgen Popp, Thomas Mayerhofer, and colleagues at Leibniz IPHT and Friedrich Schiller University Jena introduce the Personalized Optical Digital Twin (PODT), a Photonics21 contribution to Europe's Virtual Human Twin ecosystem that connects molecular photonics—Raman blood analysis, coherent Raman tissue imaging, and multimodal endomicroscopy—with longitudinal physiology and clinical data. Drawing on the published multicenter INTELLIGENCE trials, the authors argue that technical feasibility and clinical utility must be evaluated separately as the field moves toward Europe's FP10 research agenda.
