Why is Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy Used? One of the main techniques for evaluating the optical properties of materials is optical absorption spectroscopy, or UV-vis spectroscopy. Most absorption ...

Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), in which the diffuse and scattered light returning from a sample can reveal details of its composition, has been widely studied as a means to measure hemoglobin ...

Researchers have developed an optical biopsy system that can distinguish between cancerous and healthy liver tissue. The technology makes use of diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and lifetime ...

In the field of clinical instrumentation and life science research, sensing and optical spectroscopy perform vital roles in a range of applications. Optical spectroscopy offers an optimal method for ...

Zilia, a Quebec-based healthcare developer working towards diagnosis of diseases through optical imaging of the eye, has demonstrated a targeted spectroscopy technique for better identification of ...

We apply routine techniques of diffuse reflectance spectroscopy to establish a systematic procedure for global analysis of the in situ reflectance from coastal water over the 400-900 nm region of the ...

In the early 1940s, the first commercial dispersive spectrometers emerged for UV-Vis applications. This technology is based on the dispersion of light in dependence of its wave-lengths. The dispersion ...

In this interview, Sue Berets, the Applications Scientist at Harrick Scientific, talks to AZoM about specular reflectance measurements and the difference between absolute and relative. Please tell us ...
