Vibrational spectroscopy has emerged as an indispensable tool for probing the molecular structures and bonding environments present throughout the cosmos. By measuring the vibrational transitions of ...

The integration of vibrational spectroscopy with advanced theoretical methods has substantially deepened our understanding of organic compounds. These techniques, which include Fourier Transform ...

Researchers led by Prof. ZHOU Wu from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS) and Prof. Sokrates T. Pantelides of Vanderbilt University have pushed the sensitivity of single-atom ...

Vibrational sum-frequency generation (VSFG) is a nonlinear spectroscopic method widely used to investigate the molecular structure and dynamics of surface systems. However, in far-field observations, ...

Raman spectroscopy is a powerful tool for probing molecular vibrations. It’s used commercially for quality and process control and in research settings to study molecular phenomena. But the Raman ...

Over the last several decades, the trend towards sustainable synthetic methods has had a profound effect on the pharmaceutical development cycle. Did you know that applying vibrational ...

We examine the role of electronic polarizability in water on short (tens of femtoseconds), intermediate (hundreds of femtoseconds), and long (≈1 ps) time scales by comparing molecular dynamics results ...

Infrared vibrational spectroscopy could enable the production of high-resolution maps of molecules inside live cells and cell organelles. A new study from Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) and Humboldt ...

Raman spectroscopy is an analytical characterization technique which has been around for many decades. Since it’s first inception to build a database of molecular vibrational frequencies, it has ...

Breakthroughs in optical sensing, like band-pass Raman spectroscopy, promise a future free from painful finger-prick blood ...

NIR spectroscopy concerns the analysis of how NIR light and matter interact. In spectroscopic analysis, light is determined by the wavelength, not by the applied energy. The wavelength of light is ...
