NIR spectroscopy concerns the analysis of how NIR light and matter interact. In spectroscopic analysis, light is determined by the wavelength, not by the applied energy. The wavelength of light is ...

Changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral metabolic rates (CMRO 2) have been used as indices for changes in neuronal activity. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can also measure cerebral ...

Abstract: Fear, dread, panic, and, less commonly, excruciating pain accompany unintended awareness during general anesthesia. No clinical device is currently available to reliably measure the depth of ...

Researchers demonstrate critical improvements to functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS)-based optical imaging in the brain. In an article published today in the peer-reviewed, open-access SPIE ...

FTIR deals with the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum, and it works by measuring how much light is absorbed by the bonds of vibrating molecules to provide a molecular fingerprint. The ...

NIRSIT, a functional near-infrared spectroscopy neuroimaging device, is set to change the landscape of neuroscience research and the medical sector by offering high spatial resolution as well as high ...

Functional infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a unique brain scanning technique that allows for assessment of brain activation during an eating episode under “naturalistic” environmental conditions.

Due to their unique properties for applications in battery technology, semiconductors, photovoltaics, and a number of other areas, 2D materials research is a very important emerging field. 2D ...

Infrared and Raman spectroscopies can observe different types of molecular vibrations. Using both methods on a compound provides a more complete molecular picture than either alone. But the two ...

Two groups present applications of two-dimensional optical spectroscopic methods for investigating dynamic biological processes on pico- to femtosecond timescales. Perhaps it is time to replace that ...
