A spectrometer is a pretty common lab instrument, useful for determining the absorbance of a sample across a spectrum of light. The standard design is simple; a prism or diffraction grating to break ...

A good portable Raman spectrometer bridges the gap in capability, performance, and size between benchtop and handheld Raman spectroscopy. It allows new point-of-use applications in industry and ...

Color, as the way light's wavelength is perceived by the human eye, goes beyond a simple aesthetic element, containing important scientific information like a substance's composition or state.

Here at Hackaday, we love projects that result in useful lab equipment for a fraction of the cost of professional gear. [Lorenz], over at Advanced Tinkering, built his own instrument for Laser-Induced ...

Ever wish you could just point a device at an object, take a reading, and get details on what it is and what it’s made of at a molecular level? Essentially, you’d have a Star Trek-style tricorder.

The North America Mass Spectrometry Market is poised to surge from US$ 2.6 Billion in 2024 to US$ 4.87 Billion by 2033, ...
