The vibrational signal was obtained by subtracting the background under the peak at 138 meV in all the spectra, which were similar to the spectrum shown in Fig. 2b. The signal was then normalized by ...

Since their inception, optical detection and spectroscopy of single molecules have steadily expanded to an amazing variety of disciplines in natural sciences. Domains as varied as optical microscopy, ...

Electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) combined with advanced microscopy techniques has emerged as a formidable tool for exploring the intrinsic properties of materials at the nanometre scale. By ...

(Nanowerk News) Thanks to fluorescence, single nano-objects down to individual fluorophores can now be imaged in optical microscopes. Fluorescence imaging is still restricted to laboratory facilities ...

Auger electron spectroscopy is a well-established surface-sensitive technique. It has been mostly used for the identification of species on sample surfaces, especially to monitor the process of sample ...

The main focus of my group is to study catalytic surface reactions on heterogeneous catalysts via a three-fold approach, employing surface science based planar model catalysts, atomically-precise ...

Scientists from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitaet (LMU) in Munich and the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics can image the optical properties of individual nanoparticles with a novel microscope.

There are obvious differences between cancerous cells and normal cells in morphology, chemical properties and mechanical properties. The detection of cytochemical and mechanical properties of tumor ...

Electrons are tiny and constantly in motion. How they behave in a crystal lattice determines key material properties: ...

Photothermal Spectroscopy Corp. today announced the release of stRAMos ™, a next-generation Raman microscope based on photothermal detection of Stimulated Raman scattering, or SRS. This new system ...
