Spectroscopy and its Types with Applications
Apr 25, 2023
- The study of the relations of electromagnetic radiation with matter is called Spectroscopy. It applies to measure a sample’s absorption, emission or scattering of light to get details about its composition, structure, and properties.
- It is used in various disciplines like engineering, physics, chemistry and biology. It is utilized to determine and characterize Organic compounds, study chemical reactions, determine the structure of molecules, and analyze the properties of materials.
- It can study electromagnetic radiation coming from X-rays and gamma rays to radio waves and microwaves. Different types of radiation are best suited for different kinds of samples and measurements.
- It is a rapidly evolving field, constantly developing new techniques and instruments. Recent spectroscopy advances have helped researchers to study molecules and materials at smaller scales with greater precision.
