Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy provides a rapid and cost-effective method for food-allergen detection. Over 15 million people in the US have a food allergy. Even trace amounts of a substance can ...

Coupling mid-infrared “idler” photons with near-infrared “signal” photons enables cheaper, smaller and more efficient machines for uses such as greenhouse gas monitoring to medical diagnostics.

To investigate how melanin affects the accuracy of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) measurements, researchers correlated the melanin levels of 35 adults with a diverse range of skin tones, measured ...

Prepregs are reinforcement materials that have been pre-impregnated with either thermoplastic or thermoset resins. They are used in high-performance applications where mechanical properties and low ...
