Several spectroscopy techniques are essential in nanotechnology research:
Raman Spectroscopy: Measures vibrational modes of molecules to provide information about molecular composition and structure. XPS: Analyzes surface chemistry by measuring the kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from a sample surface. Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR): Identifies molecular bonding and structures by measuring the absorption of infrared radiation. Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) Spectroscopy: Measures the absorbance of UV and visible light to study electronic transitions in materials. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy: Provides detailed information about molecular structure and dynamics by observing the magnetic properties of atomic nuclei.
