In this paper we examine the two-dimensional tunneling formalism used previously to fit the hydrogen-transfer and internal-rotation splittings in the microwave spectrum of 2 methylmalonaldehyde in an effort to determine the origin of various
We have tested the suitability of a commercial flatbed scanner for digitizing photographic plates used for spectroscopy. The scanner has a bed size of 420 mm by 310 mm and a pixel size of about 10 um. Our tests show that the closest line pairs that can be

Ferrolectricity has been proposed as a plausible meachanism to explain the high photovoltaic conversion efficiency in organic-inorganic perovskites; however, convincing experimental evidence in support to this hypothesis is still missing. Identifying and

The Raman spectra of polycaprolactones have been measured over a temperature range of 20 °C to 160 °C to distinguish ordered chain conformers in the melt state and determine the quantitative crystalline bands. Principal component analysis of the spectra in

3-hydroxyanthranilate 3,4-dioxygenase (3HAO) is an enzyme in the microglial branch of the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan degradation. 3HAO is a non-heme iron-containing, ring-cleaving extradiol dioxygenase that catalyzes addition of both atoms of O2 to

We present a new cavity ring-down spectroscopy system which was developed for variable-temperature absorption measurements (220 K- 290 K) of atmospheric gases. This laser spectrometer was developed in the framework of the NASA Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2
Moving-window (MW) approaches to two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-COS) make it possible to characterize spectral changes occurring in a narrow range of perturbation variable (e.g., time, temperature, and concentration). Despite the wide range

Diffuse materials that approximate the optical properties of human tissue are commonly used as phantoms. In order to use the phantoms in a manner that provides consistent results relative to independent measurements, the optical properties need to be tied

The use of low temperature thermal detectors for avoiding Darwin-Bragg losses in lab-based ultrafast experiments has begun. An outline of the background of this new development is offered, showing the relevant history and initiative taken by this work.
Secondary fluorescence, the final term in the familiar matrix correction triumvirate Z·A·F, is the most challenging for Monte Carlo models to simulate. In fact, only two implementations of Monte Carlo models commonly used to simulate electron probe x-ray

In organic electronics, the highest estimated charge mobility in a device is typically achieved when the organic semiconductor is a single crystal. However, the measurement of the electronic and chemical structure of organic single crystals by

Photothermal induced resonance (PTIR) is a method for optical spectroscopy that allows for infrared chemical imaging at spatial resolution below the limit of diffraction. By using the mechanical resonance of the cantilever for amplification the technique
Column selection is probably the single most important aspect of method development that will directly affect measurement accuracy and precision of liquid chromatographic (LC) measurements. An understanding of physical and chemical properties of LC columns
