Nanomechanical photothermal spectroscopy: An introduction to the EMILIE technology

Photothermal spectroscopy is an analytical technique used to probe the absorption properties of materials through the ensuing non-radiative relaxation processes that generate heat. Invisible-Light Labs introduces EMILIE™, a photothermal infrared spectroscopy technique based on a nanoelectromechanical system (NEMS). Discover how EMILIE™ is a unique and powerful analytical tool due to its exceptionally wide spectral range, insensitivity to scattering and reflections, efficiency and versatility in sampling a wide variety of materials, possibility for in-situ thermal desorption analysis, and exceptional sensitivity at room temperature with a limit of detection (LoD) in the picogram range.
