Map spectral responses across microscopic surfaces

CRAIC Technologies says the Spectral Surface Mapping (S2M) capabilities of its UV-visible-NIR microspectrophotometers gives users the ability to map the spectral responses across of surfaces of their samples, point-by-point. With microscopic spatial resolution, surface profiles can be created using UV-visible-NIR…

First Android smart spectrometer now available in UK

ANALYTIK announces the first Android-based mobile smart spectrometer for measurement of colour co-ordinates, correlated colour temperature, colour rendering index, luminous flux, and other lighting parameters. The new GL Spectis 1.0 Touch from GL Optic is the first mobile spectrometer to…

Harvesting light with flash photolysis spectrometer

RESEARCH at the University of Connecticut, USA, into plant light harvesting complexes has made use of a LP920 flash photolysis spectrometer, reports Edinburgh Instruments.  A paper in the journal Photosynthesis Research examines the efficiency of variants of the Peridinin-Chlorophyll a-Protein…
