Troy, N.Y. - A new spectroscopy method is bringing researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) closer to understanding - and artificially replicating - the solar water-splitting reaction at ...
A gap-controlled infrared technique makes it possible to study molecular interfaces with high sensitivity using affordable, widely available lab equipment. These molecular interfaces are everywhere—on ...
(Nanowerk News) Water is synonymous with life, but the dynamic, multifaceted interaction that brings H2O molecules together – the hydrogen bond – remains mysterious. Hydrogen bonds result when ...
Amid a tangled maze of wires and shiny steel enclosures on the ground floor of Frick Laboratory, Chemistry Professors Kevin Lehmann and Giacinto Scoles are overseeing an investigation into the ...
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a rapid chemical analysis technology that has been well developed for trace element analyses in gases, liquids, and solids. It uses a high-power laser ...
Researchers have improved a method for probing semiconducting crystals with light to detect defects and impurities. The details of their 'omnidirectional photoluminescence (ODPL) spectroscopy' set-up ...
A new spectroscopy technique reveals that pairs of gaseous water molecules form short-lived complexes (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2021, DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2020941118). “You might think, come on, ...
Sunlight reaches the earth as white light, which is made up of all the rainbow colors. Rainbow colors are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. It is easy to remember them by using the ...
Learn about color and how to create a spectroscope using simple materials. What is color? Learn about light and wavelengths and what creates color in this episode of Camp GPB. Then learn how to build ...
