Infrared Spectroscopy
Infrared Spectroscopists have moved their spectrometers from their benchtops into the fields of homeland security and environmental remediation. They have also refocused IR photons of all ranges into tissue imaging, looking at two-dimensional time-evolving structures. In this symposium we would like to invite you to share your work with us and highlight the versatility of infrared spectroscopy. Fiat Lux!
