In a new study published in Science, researchers have developed a new method for detecting infrared light by changing its frequency to a corresponding frequency in the range of visible light.

The human eye can only see light at certain frequencies (called the visible spectrum), the lowest of which constitutes red light. Infrared light, which we can’t see, has an even lower frequency than ...

Ultrabroadband IR frequency comb could be used for detection in portable spectrometers. The comb uses a double-chirped mirror. Researchers at MIT have demonstrated a compact, fully integrated ...

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is the preferred method of infrared spectroscopy. In this approach, IR radiation passes through a sample, where some of it is absorbed by the sample ...

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have fabricated a device to increase or “up-convert” the frequency of short infrared light to the visible range. Up-conversion of light has ...

Infrared spectroscopy (IRS) is a technique used to analyze individual substances in isolation or a mixture, using their spectral information. IRS is based on the measurement of the wavelength and ...
