Researchers are designing new ways to make spectrometers that are ultra-small but still very powerful, to be used for anything from detecting disease to observing stars in distant galaxies.

“Spectrometers are critical tools for helping us understand the chemical and physical properties of various materials based on how light changes when it interacts with those materials,” says Brendan O ...

Ibsen Photonics (ibsen.com), the global leader in fused silica transmission gratings and industrial grade spectrometer modules, today announced the ultra compact PEBBLE VIS OEM spectrometer. Ibsen’s ...

BYU researchers have created a miniaturized, portable version of a tool now capable of analyzing Mars’ atmosphere — and that’s just one of its myriad possible uses. For decades mass spectrometers have ...

Olam Cocoa, a division of the agribusiness firm Olam International, will provide its field and purchase managers with pocket spectrometers from Consumer Physics, a San Francisco–area start-up. The ...

Sample homogeneity is an aspect that significantly affects several physical properties - strength, robustness, and lifetime of a particular product. Often, the ...

(Nanowerk News) Spectrometers are technology for reading light that date back to the era of famed 17th-century physicist Isaac Newton. They work by breaking down light waves into their different ...

Researchers have successfully demonstrated a spectrometer that is orders of magnitude smaller than current technologies and can accurately measure wavelengths of light from ultraviolet to the ...

This simulation shows a top-down view of how different light patterns in red and green are generated when fed with input from a waveguide on the left. Spectrometers are technology for reading light ...
