If you want to find out what something is made out of, you’ll probably be using a spectrometer. These devices allow scientists to determine what something is made of by shining light through an object ...

We know the effect of passing white light through a prism and seeing the color spectrum that comes out of the other side. It will not be noticeable to the naked eye, but that rainbow does not fully ...

A spectrometer is an imaging system used to map plurality of monochromatic images of the entrance slit onto the detector plane. This slit determines the amount of light (photon flux) that enters the ...

Spectrometers are widely used tools in chemical and biological sensing, materials analysis and light source characterization. The development of a high-resolution on-chip spectrometer could enable ...

As stated in the article titled ‘An Introduction to a Spectrometer: The Slit’, a spectrometer is an imaging system that maps a plurality of monochromatic images of the entrance slit onto the detector ...

ABB will develop the concept for a unique version of its infrared spectrometer for Canada’s Lunar Utility Rover.

Researchers at Fraunhofer IOF in collaboration with Airbus have developed a hyperspectral spectrometer as part of the "Rainbow" project. The technology enables the creation of digital field maps that ...

University of Illinois chemistry professor Alexander Scheeline has developed software that turns a camera phone, an LED, and a few other cheap tools into a spectrometer. Armed with these, he thinks we ...

Compact imaging spectrometer combines a catadioptric lens and a special flat immersion reflection grating. (Courtesy: Ronald B. Lockwood, MIT Lincoln Laboratory) A new, slimline imaging spectrometer ...

As much as we know today about the planets of the solar system, it’s almost incomprehensible that a mere 50 years ago we knew almost nothing about them. Observations of even Mars and Venus, Earth’s ...
