Journal Highlight: Refining the interpretation of near-infrared band shapes in a polyynediyl molecular wire

Date: Aug 5, 2013

Author: spectroscopyNOW

The near-IR spectrum of a ruthenium-diyne complex, which serves as a model for the linear carbon allotrope carbyne, has been reexamined to show that the presence of rotamers is a crucial variable that may influence the appearance of the intervalence charge transfer band and the underlying electronic structure.

Journal Highlight: Use of near-infrared spectroscopy to identify trends in regional cerebral oxygen saturation in horses

Date: Jul 2, 2013

Author: spectroscopyNOW

Near-infrared spectroscopy was used to identify trends in regional cerebral oxygen saturation in horses and establish a correlation between rSO2 and venous oxygen tensions.

Satisfying your curiosity: The bigger picture

Date: Jul 1, 2013

Author: David Bradley

Images recorded by NASA's Curiosity Mars rover and sent back to Earth have been composited into what is the equivalent of a 1000 megapixel photograph of the surface of the Red Planet.

Journal Highlight: Mid-infrared (IR) – A hot topic: The potential for using mid-IR light for non-invasive early detection of skin cancer in vivo

Date: Jun 3, 2013

Author: spectroscopyNOW

The remarkable progress made towards mid-IR spectral in vitro mapping of tissue and cancer detection is reviewed and the status quo of chalcogenide glass mid-IR fibre optics and photonics for remote mid-IR sensing in general, and in vivo cancer detection in particular, is assessed.

Total emissions: Adding up all the light

Date: Jun 1, 2013

Author: David Bradley

How much light has been emitted by all the galaxies across the universe since the Big Bang? It is a fundamental question, poignant given that almost every photon ever emitted whether in the ultraviolet to far infrared wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum are still wending their way across the cosmos to this day with relatively few stopped in their tracks by matter.

Journal Highlight: High-spatial-resolution mapping of superhydrophobic cicada wing surface chemistry using IR microspectroscopy and IR imaging at two synchrotron beamlines

Date: May 15, 2013

Author: spectroscopyNOW

The chemical composition of the wings of the Clanger cicada (Psaltoda claripennis) were characterized using infrared (IR) microspectroscopy and IR imaging with a view to reproducing their characteristics in industrial applications.

Combined forces: AFM boosts IR

Date: May 1, 2013

Author: David Bradley

A technique that combines atomic force microscopy (AFM) with infrared spectroscopy has allowed researchers, for the first time, to study the infrared absorption of semiconductor plasmonic microparticles on the nanometre scale.

Journal Highlight: Assessment of resin formulations and determination of the formaldehyde to urea molar ratio by near- and mid-infrared spectroscopy and multivariate data analysis

Date: Apr 15, 2013

Author: spectroscopyNOW

The molar ratios of formaldehyde to urea in resin formulations have been analyzed by ATR-FTIR and FT-NIR spectroscopy, using PCA to separate them according to molar ratios and to distinguish between two groups of resins, and SIMCA to classify new resin samples.

Journal Highlight: Analysis of audio magnetic tapes with sticky shed syndrome by ATR-FTIR

Date: Apr 1, 2013

Author: spectroscopyNOW

ATR-FTIR spectroscopy was used to identify spectroscopic markers for sticky shed syndrome in audio magnetic tapes with a poly(ester urethane) binder layer that are held in Library of Congress collections.
