Chemical and Catalysis Newsletter

Welcome to Andor’s latest Newsletter; focused on the area of Chemistry and Catalysis.

Picking optimal optical spectroscopy instrumentation for the variety of techniques used in this area requires specialised components and Andor has created a variety of online tools/resources to help you pick the correct ones. Find out more below!

SOLUTION NOTE

Photonic Solutions for Chemistry

Andor’s modular spectroscopy platforms are designed to tackle a wide range of photonics application challenges spanning Chemistry, Catalysis, Materials Science, Analytical Chemistry, Photochemistry and Photophysics. Optical spectroscopic techniques can be employed to non-invasively study changes in composition of chemicals or materials.

Overcoming Difficulties of Raman Spectroscopy

Raman spectroscopy combines the information density of vibrational spectroscopy with the experimental flexibility of optical spectroscopy and provides label-free analysis of samples in solid, liquid, crystalline and gas phases. Although a ‘weak’ effect, Raman spectroscopy can be applied in fast reactions.

SOLUTION NOTE

Low-Temperature UV-SWIR Spectroscopy

Andor portfolio of high sensitivity detectors, highly modular spectrographs and temperature-controlled sample holders down to <3K (cryostats) provide cutting-edge technology blocks for home-builder spectroscopists. Researchers can tailor their detection configurations to capture and analyse the optical signatures.

Operando Spectroscopy for Materials and Catalysis

Operando spectroscopy is a central tool in understanding chemical reactivity, and in providing guidance to control and direct reactivity. Spectroscopic characterisation makes use of the full electromagnetic spectrum and the choice of technique is largely governed by the characteristics and composition of the material.
