Event Overview:
The traceability of origin in consumer products such as food is of increasing importance for quality control laboratories in different industrial segments. High-quality products with a specific quality label that refers to a dedicated region of origin or a specialized manufacturing procedure might receive greater appreciation from customers, often reflected in a significantly higher price than similar products. Also, the appearance of diseases linked to a foodstuff originating from a particular region makes it necessary to control the origin to ensure consumer safety and authenticity.
Chemical analysis, especially the determination of isotopic ratios, plays a crucial role in this type of forensic work. We can apply different techniques to various foodstuffs to develop methods that will permit their geographical origins to be determined with varying degrees of certainty. Measuring elemental concentrations and isotopic variation in premium regional products is the best analytical strategy for verifying geographical origin.

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.
Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy Reveals Influence of Defects on 2D Semiconductor Devices
April 25th 2024A recent study used deep level transient spectroscopy to investigate the electrical response of defect filling and emission in monolayer metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD)-grown materials deposited on complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS)-compatible substrates.
