A new filter for infrared light could see scanning and screening technology tumble in price and size. Built on nanotechnology ...

Due to the presence of organic functional groups, these materials inevitably exhibit characteristic vibrational or rotational absorption peaks in the infrared spectrum, which is contrary to the ...

An additional tweak to the contact lenses allows users to differentiate between different spectra of infrared light by engineering the nanoparticles to color-code different infrared wavelengths.

Swiss scientists have developed an ultra-thin lens that turns infrared light into visible light using lithium niobate and ...

Now, mass spectrometry is used to capture these ions in a vacuum and to analyse their structure using cryogenic infrared spectroscopy, in conjunction with computational calculations. We developed ...

Physicists have developed a lens with 'magic' properties. Ultra-thin, it can transform infrared light into visible light by halving the wavelength of incident light.

When a beam of infrared light strikes their ultra-thin lens—barely thicker than a red blood cell—it emerges on the other side ...

As well as enabling wearers to perceive more detail within the infrared spectrum, these color-coding nanoparticles might be modified to help color blind people see wavelengths that they would ...

A scaffolded infrared (IR) assignment was designed to support novice learners in developing the ability to analyze spectra. Beginning with pentane (containing no functional groups), students are ...

A team of chemists and astronomers have made a discovery in the field of astrochemistry: the identification of cyanocoronene, ...
